This poured adrk and smooth. This is a good stout. Straight foward, chcolate roasted nose and flavors. Very good finish. I can’t recall who sent this. But Thanks!

Thanks to tjthresh for this one. The beer pours to a deep ruby colored body that gets sufficiently black with quantity. The beer has a nice thick, lasting, creamy tan head. Excellent lacing. The aroma is bready with fresh unroasted coffee cherries and nicely roasted coffee with fresh oats. If you ask me, this beer’s aroma is up there with the best of them. The flavor, unfortunately, falls a little short. There are components of light roasted coffee, vanilla ice cream, overly sweet black malts. The beer needs more dryness, roastiness, maltiness, and smokeyness. The palate is medium-light. Weak by dry stout standards.

BottleBlack color with a bit of ruby transparency. Retentive tan head with no lacing. Nose of light city roasted coffee beans, burnt oats and bitter chocolate; moderate carbonation sting. The flavor is relatively dry but a balanced pseudo-sweet licorice and vanilla note round out the mouthfeel. The finish is creamy yet lightly astringent. A bit of smoke in the tail, which is of moderate length. Decent dry stout. Thanks to Brock_Landers for this beer.

12oz bottle via trade with eboats! - Thanks Caleb! - Pours black with a nice creamy tan head that stayed very well and laced the sides of the glass. Aromas of coffee, and bitter hops. Flavor is nice coffee bitter with some hop flavor and just a touch of chocolate. Nice roasted malt presence too. Finishes dry as a good dry stout should. Palate is medium bodied and smooth. This is an easy drinking stout that I could get used to..

bottle. Some bitter hop aroma, maybe some malt. tan colored head that disappeared when I blinked. Black in color with some reddish brown hues. Flavor is bitter with some hints of malt. The mouthfeel is watery and somewhat fruity it finishes dry. Overall this is ok. Didnt really enjoy this beer much.

Thin brown head of fine bubbles. Reduces quickly. Light carbonation. Light chocolate, roasted grains and a hint of coffee. Dark brownish black in color. Thin dry, chalky body. Kind of salty also. Distinct grilled terreaki steak flavor. More roasted grains and coffee. Little bit of bitterness and a light lingering chocolate flavor. Finish is pretty clean though. Very tingly in the mouth. Slight tart finish. An ok stout. Kind of weak though.

I found this while cleaning up some packing materials I thought were empty. So thanks to the fine RBerian that sent it! <P> Aroma is sharp with hops and slightly stale malts. Deep black in color with a fast fading tan head that leaves just a thin film of a head when settled. Fore is thin and watery and almost has a bit of lager taste to it. Some fairly tasty roasted malts follow and you get hints of coffee and some fruity notes. Finish is crisp and again lager like with more of that fruitiness.

Poured a dark brown color with a creamy froathy layer of light brown head. Aroma is molases, roasted malts, and slight hops. Flavor is rather light and watery, a bit bittersweet but rather bland in flavor.
