| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Mar 7, 2008 On tap at the Stogie and Stout event, 2008 edition.
Pours pretty darn dark with nice half inch to three quarter inch firm mocha head and spotty lacing. Looks like a nice beer. The aroma is fairly strong with roasty malts mixed with toffee followed by burnt malts. Very pleasing combination. The taste is bold like the aroma with roasty malts and toffee followed by burnt malts to midway. The beer sort of trails off and becomes a bit thin as the finish approaches. In the after taste a nice roasty and toffee maltiness lingers.

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Jan 11, 2008 Draught at Rock Bottom - Atlanta. Aroma is intensely roasted malt and some coffee but a nice background of herbal hops. Pours a deep opaque blackish-mahogany with 1-2 fingers worth of thick creamy crown, good retention and fingery lacing. Flavour is full of roasted and cholocate tones, slight coffee, and a nice prominent hop bitterness. Finish is extremely smooth leaving a great roasty aftertaste. Mouthfeel is creamy with the perfect amount of moderate carbonation. Overall a wonderful stout, although nothing too characteristic - too bad this is only at the restaurant. DrPiva (90), Alabama, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Dec 18, 2007 A great stout - jumps out at you with more hops than many stouts and a terrific flavor. Great roasted malt and well balanced. I’ve had a few dozen of these at the source in Chattanooga which is a very cool brewery. I would love to see this bottled! Fightfire4beer (125), Virginia, USA

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Nov 15, 2007 Updated: Oct 19, 2008Update 10/2008. Had again and seemed really creamy compared to before. More mocha also. Almost more like a sweet stout.
Poured black. Pretty thin brown head. Roasty aroma, not real powerful. Inoffensive going down, mostly coffee and licorice. Not bad for a place trying to be fairly main stream. Had this at the Rock Bottom Brewery in Charlotte NC.
