Commercial Description:
This is a full-bodied stout with plenty of roast flavor as well as hints of molasses and chocolate. Ridiculous amounts of black and caramel malts make this stout smooth, creamy, and utterly opaque.

Pours a very thick black with a tan head. Has a sweet aroma, flavor has a noticeable black licorice presence accompanied by a chocolate malt flavor. Very good stout.

Nice chocolate flavor and a moderate smokey after. Its very smooth for a stout but still has outstanding flavor. Repeat buying and drinking will occur.

12 oz bottle. Pours pitch black with a 2 cm foamy tan head that is lasting. Aroma of chocolate dominates the maltiness. Flavor is balanced between the bitter chocolate, mild malts, and a hint of sweet creaminess. Tons of lacing, no noted carbonation, and light on alcohol. Medium to full body. Drinkable and great for when you want a big tasting beer without the imperial alcohol.

malty and moderate of flavor and body. light charcoal taste that weaves in and out of this dark and hardly menacing looking brew. a dank sweetness this is a good stout with adequate carbonation that is somewhat biting. hardly any chocolate to my taste.

Not much to say about this one and I think they want it that way. Its not an imperial , dry, or sweet stout. Its just a stout. Well balanced with a good amount of flavor for a 6% brew. Drink all night with no regrets. Fine Bell’s product.

April 2006 - This was one fine beer...and I have 5 left (tempting me to hoard them all for myself). Beer poured dark, dark brown, with a very small head and almost no lacing. Highlights of red came through on the bottom and edges of my pint glass when held right up to the light. Initially, the flavor was all roasty with some coffee, but got immensely better as it warmed (don’t go too fast!). Lactic tones came out making me think this should be touted as the best milk stout in the world. Perfect creaminess and hop balance. Freaking tasty!

Very dark with small brown head...very bitter stout and malty. A pretty good stout but not quite my flavor
