Pour is mahogany in color with a nice creamy brown head. Faint aroma of coffee and roasted malt. A bit of caramel and chocolate too. Flavor is of weak coffee and carmalized malt. Medium/ weak body and overcarbonated.

Oct 7, 2008 Pours dark brown with a quickly dissapating tan head. Aroma is of toasty malts, caramel, dairy creamer, and some weak coffee. Taste is malts and hints of chocolate complimented by coffee and a lingering creamy sweetness. Very creamy mouthfeel, but a tad too watery. It’s good, without being overly unique.

Oct 2, 2008 Bottle. Pours thick brown with tan head. Flavor is chocolate, coffee, creamy and thick. Finishes malty. Very hearty beer for winter drinking.

Oct 2, 2008 12 oz. bottle - batch 8150; thanks to kryptic (BA) for the trade; milky brown with thin tan head; smooth, creamy texture; milk chocolate, vanilla, cookies; very nice and an easy drinker; perhaps a little unfair to drink next to the 7000, but a stellar beer on its own

Oct 1, 2008 Bottled. Super, easy drinking stout. Pour a slick, dark brown with a tan head. Aroma is coffee that has cream and sugar added. Smooth flavour of milk chocolate, french coffee and vanilla. Just a hint of bitterness in the finish. Maybe a little thin on the body and mouthfeel but still a great stout.

Sep 25, 2008 On tap at Jerry’s. Black with big, creamy cappuccino head / Tobacco nose / Medium to full body, acidic, maybe a tad watery / Remarkable flavor profile of tobacco, smoke, bittersweet chocolate, and vanilla / Superb flavor offsets a weak body.
