Pours deep black with a red under tone. Like a cherry Coke. Nice creamy tan head with a blend of large and fine bubbles that dissapate into a thin lace with fine brussels around the glass. Initial taste isn’t bad, sweet, but not overpoweringly so. I get oatmeal taste and then.........painted metal. I have no idea where it came from but that last taste is like someone left a galvanized washer in the bottle. Very sad. It starts great. My solution is just to take the next sip before the metal taste starts, that way, you only get the metal taste once. I believe the industry term is "slamming"

Nov 28, 2008 Bottle, pretty ok. Black pour, tan head. Aroma is very roasted and toasty. Flavor is a bit drier than I prefer in stouts. Some notes of coffee and chocolate are present, but flavor is a bit over roasted to me.

Nov 21, 2008 Bottle. Poured a dark black with a one finger brown head that quickly dissipated. Aroma of roasted malt and oatmeal, with a hint of bitter chocolate. Flavor has a nice coffee taste at the beginning, but withers off into not much at the finish. Body is a little thin. Good beer but not much complexity to it.

Oct 29, 2008 12 oz. bottle. Pour a deep, dark black with a light-brown head that diminishes quickly. Nice lacing. Aroma is sweet coffee and chocolate. Flavor is a dry, roasty coffee with a bitter, cocoa-like chocolaty undertone. The body is medium, almost creamy, with very light carbonation. Long, dry finish.
