Draught at Stuffed Sandwich, San Gabriel. Dark brown, small creamy head. Notes of coffee. Sweet with plenty of molasses and rather mellow mouthfeel. Lightly salty finish. A sub-par stout.

chocolate aroma immediatly upon opening the bottle and even before pouring the thick black liquid into the glass, nice tan head, rich roasted chocolate aroma and flavor, flavor just keeps getting richer as it warms, lots of bitterness in the finish that eventually becomes too much after a while, overall a very good stout except for the overdone bitter malt finish

still good flavor over shadowed by too much bitterness

Black color, medium head, beige colored. There is roasted malt aroma, ashes; luckily some alcohol too, that in this case fits well for the balance; light smoke and soy sauce, if possible. Medium strength and body, with a dryish chocolate flavor, burnt malts, light liquorice. The final is dominated by the chocolate, not bad but not exciting either.

Motor oil viscosity on the pour, leaving you with a virtually black body, topped by a medium deep mocha head. Great chocolate aroma tinged with a bit of coffee. Flavor is rich, chocolate and roasty coffee, some hops at the back of the throat.
