bottle - Pours near black with a one finger tan head. It has a roast malt and chocolate aroma. The flavor is of course of those big roast malts along with chocolate and a hint of oak. It’s well hopped and has a medium body. I really enjoyed this one.

Pours a four finger beige head that fades slowly to a thin layer, leaving some lace. Deepest mahogany color. Good carbonation and heavy bodied. Burnt coffee nose. Flavor has hints of malty sweetness but burnt coffee dominates. $6.49 for a 22oz bottle from Manchester Wine and Liquors Manchester, CT.

Bottle from Crown Liquors. Almost a black pour with a small brown head. Aroma is nice enough. Roasted malts, chocolate, espresso, etc. Flavor is hoppier and toastier than I prefer my stouts. dont get me wrong, it is a pretty well done beer...just not my favorite type of stout. Finish is dry and a tad bitter.

Pour is a dark brown with light tan head. Roasty malt, chocolate, oats, oak, and a bit of smoke. Thin, but silky mouthfeel. Pretty decent stout.

Darker brown pour with a slightly oaky aroma that mixes with chocolate, and roasty malts. Flavor is a bit chocolatey and roasty with a kind of one demensional oak profile. Smooth, but weaker feel. Not bad, but I was hoping for more.
