Roast aroma. Black slightly rich on the palate and hoppy with some bitterness in a dry burnt roast finish.

Aug 13, 2009 Sample at the Downtown location. Pours nearly opaque dark brown/black with a thin tan head that diminishes quickly. Stringy lacing on the glass. Dark chocolate and coffee in the nose. Medium, glassy smooth body with flavors of roasted coffee, semi-sweet chocolate and sweet malt. The finish is roasty with a short mild coffee aftertaste. Above average overall. Pretty sure Capitol City’s Blackout existed before Great Lakes’, but I doubt anyone will ever think of this one first when they hear the name.

Mar 4, 2008 definitely my favourite on my first visit to the brewpub. heavy, yet smooth, stout with rafts of roasted barley balancing some serious hop action

Nov 14, 2007 Tap @ Capitol Hill location. Pours black with a thin and quickly dissipating head. Aroma is roasted malt, and the taste is roughly the same. It finishes up with a chocolate bitterness and a bit of an oily texture. Not bad, but not extraordinary.
