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.

100th rating for the beer, thanks to ericandersnavy. Pours with a black body and a tan head. Aroma of raisin, oatmeal and chocolate. Taste is chocolate, coconut, nutella, and decently low residual sugars. Light bubbles.

[Bottle] Pours a dark brown color with a small amount of tan head. Aroma of cocoa and dry toasted malts. The taste was more complex. I got some coffee, chocolate, vanilla and hazelnut notes in here. Creamy mouthfeel. One of the more drinkable stouts out there. A pleasant surprise!

Bottled. Poured medium-deep reddish-brown with a creamy, well-retained cap of beige head. The aroma picked up sweet milky chocolates and toasted oats with light roast all-around.. soft and sweet overall. The flavor had sweet chocolates and lactic notes paired with light coffee and earthy bitterness.. dried out on the back-end, leaving dry-roasted sweeter chocolates, coffee, and milk sugars on the finish.. tasty. Roughly medium-bodied with high carbonation on the palate.. bitterness was light and there was a touch of sourness from the milkage in there.. balance was great and this was just strikingly easy to drink.

Bottle from Total Wine in Roseville, CA. Poured a brown color with a red hue. Very easy to drink with flavors of chocolate and coffee. Slight bit of bitter finish. Solid brew!!
