A lovely nutty and smoky black stout. Lots of flavor. Could have used a little more hop backbone - I think that would have added to the complexity.

Jun 8, 2009 Sample at the brewery gave a dark brown black color with a small tan mocha head. Oaky, smoky aromas. Full bodied but not syrupy. Flavors of coffee, cocoa, molasses, and hops. Alcohol not over the top. Very smooth beer. Very solid RIS even though not off the charts in complexity. Likes it for sure.
