| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | May 16, 2005 Looks like a stout should. Head is rather bland. This is suprisingly sweet but it certainly isn’t bad. The finish is dry buty light enough to make this an easily drinkable beer. austinpowers (2828), New York, New York, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Apr 20, 2005 A little light and a touch roasty. Very enjoyable. About the same thickness as a Guinnes, with a lingering beige head. Lightly sweet. Nice. Aurelius (2654), Tallahassee, Florida, USA
| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Apr 18, 2005 Good, menacing, dark fruity aroma, good looking beer, bottle and label. Tangy, tart, a bit creosote astringent, faintly sweet. Long nutty char finish. Medium bodied. A good brew, more complex that I’ve noted here. SDbruboy (1832), San Diego, California, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Apr 17, 2005 Bottle. Pours dark, dark brown with garnet highlights and little to no head. Aroma is roasty sweet with coffee and bitter chocolate notes. Flavor is good, sweet and smooth with an herby bitterness in the finish. Full, round mouthfeel and little carbonation. Not bad.

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Apr 10, 2005 Pours black with a thin off white head. Subtle chocolate smell with a more noticeable bitter coffee smell. Subtle taste for a stout, tastes like it smells. Subtle average aftertaste and feel.

| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Apr 9, 2005 Pours a little slim for a stout but makes up for it in the flavor... Very reminsicent of the Aecht Smoked-- almost an eerie relationship... VERY good stout; reminds me of a good smoked porter. Grab one if you can... I’m serious! jzzbassman (850), New Albany, Mississippi, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 2/5 | 15/20 | Apr 2, 2005 It has taken me a couple to form an opinion: Looks great, good aroma, hoppy American Dry Stout. The only thing that bugs me is a metallic aftertaste that is very pronounced when colder, when almost room temp, it seems to go away. Still very enjoyable. HumuloneRed (750), Portland, Oregon, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Mar 24, 2005 Pours black with not much head and no lacing. Caramel, chocolate, and vanilla in the nose. Smooth malty chocolate and caramel flavor with nice hop bite to balance things out. Nice stout but not one of my favorites.
