| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jun 2, 2007 Deep, super-dark chocolate aroma, raspberries, but a little weak. A very nice subtle roast in the flavor, especially the finish, but there is definitely a bad lactic sourness that seriously holds this beer back. moejuck (1172), Ohio, USA

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Apr 21, 2007 Vintage 2004: Poured an opaque black with a small creamy brown head. Creamy dark chocolate aroma. Some aged malt . Sweet and thick with a touch of aged soy character. Roasted malt with a light tartness and some chocolate but not as much as the aroma. The body is on the thin side for how it smelled. i thought this was going to be huge after the aroma. Cletus (5058), Connecticut, USA

| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Apr 17, 2007 Perhaps a bit cold, but the last bottle from your man martinT. Aroma is roasted coffee and hints of toffee, but not harsh. Taste is similar with a good bit of toffee and coffee in there coming over the roasty malts, perhaps a hint of chocolate, but not as much as id havce liked. Spankingly good beer. dmac (1500), Toms River, New Jersey, USA
| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 16/20 | Apr 2, 2007 Thanks to Taktik_MTL. 2006 vintage bottle. This was an incredibally drinkable beer and was great all around. Poured thick like oil but developed a nice looking light brown head that faded into a thin creamy layer that stayed for the remainder of the beer. Aroma is of choclate covered fruit. Palate is a full mouthfeel with no noticeable carbonation but it doesn’t feel flat, finishes with a creamy thickness. Really enjoyed this to be bad it’s only available in Canada.
