Jan 1, 2007 Cask at the brewpub, July 2006. A mahagony colored beer with a thin brown head - too light in color for a stout. The aroma is sweet malty with light roasted notes - I find it too vaguely roasted for a stout. The flavor is sweet with light notes of chocolate, leading to a roasted dry end. The mouthfeel is very smooth, but the body is thin. I’ve had many much better cask stouts in England and Denmark.

Jun 11, 2004 (cask) Beautiful on the pour with creamy beige head settling atop a dark red-black body. Aroma is roasty chococoffee. Taste is mild chococoffee, some earthy. Wonderfully smooth light-medium body, really drinkable.

Aug 25, 2002 Updated: Jun 5, 2003This beer rocks.
The hue is a dark crimson, not black, with a lovely, long lasting tan head. The aroma is of coffee and burnt malt. The flavor is of cocoa, mocha latte and hints of a burn in the malt. Very well balanced. Not sweet. Not bitter. Malty. Very full, velvety/buttery mouthfeel. Lightly carbonated, acrid and just a touch smoky in the finish. Excellent stout. One of my very favorite beers.

Jun 2, 2007 Cask at the brewpub. Actually this is very comparable to their oatmeal stout, I guess they do stout well... lots of roast, some liquid smoke in the nose, some charred grains as it warms... flavor is quite good, palate is slick and moderately carbed, doesnt exactly feel like cask... full of roast and smoke and charred grains, but without the oatmeal and milk flavors of their other stout. Solid enough.

May 24, 2007 Cask, at the brewpub, July 2006. Deep tawny brown colour - not opaque. Fairly dry and quite roasty. A little powdery chocolate. Mouthfeel is fairly light. Rather English in style although that could have been more down to the cask dispense. Solid but unspectacular.

Aug 8, 2003 Draft. Nice head left good lacing on the glass. Deep, dark color. Roasted malts and chicory in the nose. Taste was a little lighter than I expected - more medium bodied than full. Finish was a tad bitter.

Jul 24, 2009 Draft at the brewery. Opaque black-brown with a patchy white head. Smooth roasty chocolate aroma. An easy drinking stout, presumably nitro-poured. Light and watery in some respects, but mossy, smooth, and impressively flavorful. Hits the spot.

May 11, 2004 Nicely done. Great coffee/nutty aroma and a beautiful black pour. Oily mouthfeel with a full body. Quite easy to drink. A wonderful cask stout.
