Bottle... Poured dark brown -- near black -- with a nice, creamy, light brownish/tan head. Roasted aroma of that classic stout-like nutty, sweet, cocoa malt character. Lots of carbonation and pretty robust for the lower alcohol, and a little hoppy as well. Nice chocolate flavors with a dry, grainy finish.

Bottle thanks to ericandersnavy. The smell is roasty, oatmeal, malts, ok. The look is brown, clear, with a beige colored head. The taste is sweet, oats, and some chocolate.

dark brown pour with a medium tan head. Aroma is dusty roasted coffee. bittersweet chocolate and coffee in the flavour. Some oatmeal sweetness lingering in the finish. Medium bodied though thins out towards the end.

Dark pour with thinnish head. Aroma of mud, roasted malt. Drinking this reminds me of going to haunted houses in the middle of hillbilly Illinois. Its somewhat milky. A bit thin. Pretty smooth, albeit pedestrian, stout.

12 oz. bottle- Pours deep black with a thin head, aroma is of coffee and malt. Flavor is a bit light, but still very drinkable, I polished off the six pack in one night.

Dark brown to black hued. Faint whif of coffee. A little hoppy and too light, roasted coffee, overly carbonated. A little disappointing.
