Jul 15, 2008 Updated: Jul 16, 2008Bottle given to me from Robert. Not what I was expecting.. But suprisely good. Dark in color, no head. Aroma that I cant put my finger on. Taste is sweet and smooth. Rye, chocolate, small amount of coffee, roasted malt, but has a nicy spiceyness that suits it well. Texture is a little thin for a stout. Hats off to the brewers at Bells for trying something unique. Good beer! Thanks robert!

May 26, 2008 Bottle pours a brown body with a tan head. Aroma is malty rye and chocolate with a hint of coffee. Flavor is such with a dry rye finish. not bad.

Pour with light carbonation. Nose is cholately and Belgian (bubblegum). Rye is subtle at this point. Hidden behind most of the roast.

Mar 9, 2008 Pours very dark brown with a small brown head. Aroma of cocoa, dark fruits, some light notes of kalamata olives. Dark chocolate is accompanied by a spicy twang, and a lasting spicy rye finish. I really enjoyed this. I was about to note that this is a great session stout - I had no clue this was 6.7% ABV. Damn, Bell’s can sure make stouts.

Feb 10, 2008 Draft at Eccentric Cafe. Poured a dark dark brown color with only a bit of orange light getting through. Head was thin and tan.Not much in the way of aroma with the exception of some chocolate. Slightly sweet up front with a dry and slightly mouth-puckering finish. Medium bodied. Tasted of bitter chocolate, tangy rye, and a bit of dark bread. Interesting beer, but I didn’t like it as much as their other exceptional stouts.

Rich black color. Smells of roasted malt and a hint smoky. Surprisingly thin palate and low carbonation. Flavor is nothing special - some roasted hints but not memorable or complex. Just average overall

Jan 14, 2008 Bottle from ford9719. Thanks Chris!
Pours dark black with a creamy, soft tan head. Smell is lightly sweet dark rich roasty malt but with a unique element from the rye, I’m guessing. A bit light of a mouthfeel, but the flavor is nice with a good roasty presence and a bit of the rye coming into play in the taste as well. Moderate carbonation, and a nice, if not spectacular beer. Very enjoyable though.
