hellbilly (772), scottsdale über alles, Arizona, USA Jun 29, 2008 clear reddish brown. very dark but nowhere near black. it’s topped by a small light tan head and random spots of lace. simple aroma of dark roasty grain, chocolate, coffee and earth. same goes for the flavor.. earthy and grainy with lightly bitter coffee on the finish and lingering in the aftertaste. light to medium bodied with a thin mouth feel. simple and easy to put down a few. popdoggy (100), USA Jan 13, 2008 There are definately some good qualities about this beer. Worst is the aroma, almost none. The oaty roastness is nice, but the mouthfeel feels to much like soda, and a little light for a sweet stout.
Not very impressed with food or beer, although this is the best beer of the night there.

Aurelius (2443), Tallahassee, Florida, USA Jul 26, 2007 I really had high hopes for this, and though quite good, it wasn’t the exceptional brew that I had expected based on the quality of the other offerings from the pub. Almost black, tow-toned tan head. Nice roasty aroma. Roast, slightly sweet, slightly milky. Medium mouth, but somehow watery. Balaned, nice, but neutered. Medium roast finish.
