Apr 3, 2005 This was by far the best of the selection at big river. nice medium mouthfeel. good dark brown with light tan head. dry, toasted marshmellow (i keep finding this lately in stouts-- is it just me??) malty, chocolatey, roasted toasted and pretty decent, but lacking something... isk what...

Feb 2, 2005 Updated: Mar 26, 2005Have had this before, but shared another wih Shag tonight. Black with a creamy, beige head and robust flavors of coffee and chocolate, roast, and a touch of sweetness. Very decent stout, but wish they’d bring back the espresso stout...mmm, mm, m!

Jan 10, 2005 Coffee aroma. Something is off in the nose, though not sure what. Nice lace. Opaque body. No head. Pretty good. No flaws. Could be more complex in its flavors. Very nice. Just could be better. But, lives up to its ranking as the #1 rated Big River brew.

Sep 6, 2004 -Aroma: Malty with a hint of whiskey
-Appearance: Deep brown to black
-Flavor: Nice chocolate malts with a kick of liquor/whiskey (maybe even Bailey's...had kind of a sweet creamyness)
-Palate: Smooth and creamy yet a tad on the watery side
-Overall:Not bad but not great. I like my stouts a little bit more hearty

Aug 8, 2004 This was the big winner out of the sampler. Worthy of a whole pint. Lots of big chocolate and coffee flavors. Very smooth creamy and easy to drink.

Apr 18, 2004 Coffee, chocolate and plums are all present in the aroma. Brown-black body. Moderately sweet flavor becomes a lightly bitter, roasty finish. Medium body, watery texture, soft carbonation. The bottom line is: decent, but need a touch more body and flavor.
