| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Dec 22, 2009 Bottle. Pours dark brown with a creamy brown head. Lightly roasted malt, chocolate milk and coffee in aroma and flavour. Medium bodied and softly carbonated. A dry and roasty finish. A nice tasty drop and unoffensive. milewide (619), Grand Rapids, Michigan, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Dec 21, 2009 Pitch black color, with modest head. Thin body for a stout. Some sweetness which is typical for a Foreign Stout. Good roasted malt taste. kosko20 (313), Bemidji, Minnesota, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 9/10 | 2/5 | 12/20 | Oct 30, 2009 Pour is very nice pitch black with a nice creamy brown head and decent lacing. Aroma is that of dark chocolate, coffee, dark roasted malts. Flavor is bitter with a hint of sweetness. The palate is a huge disappointment because its way too fizzy. Overall would be great but the palate is so offputting that its just ok. douglas88 (1662), Salt Lake City, Utah, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Oct 22, 2009 500 ml bottle bought at the Boise Co-op. Best before July 2010- drank October 2009. Pours a completely black color with a thick brown head. The aroma is milky, chocolates, roasted malts. A smooth, sweet flavor; roasted malts, milk chocolate, light roasted bitterness. Very nice and quaffable. A very good beer, quite drinkable and full of quality. highibus (441), Mill Creek, Washington, USA
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Oct 11, 2009 Pours a deep black with creamy light cocoa head. Strange aroma almost sour. Flavor is some of that same off sourness. Not a lot but it is there. Beyond that not getting much roastiness at all. Kind of bland. I haven’t had much luck with austrailian beers and this doesn’t help the cause. fidel (1002), Livermore, California, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Aug 24, 2009 Poured very dark brown, creamy, chocolate, roasted malts, molasses, little coffee. Beardface (1036), Eugene, Oregon, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 4/5 | 12/20 | Aug 22, 2009 Boring stout, a little earthy, a little malty, and a little bit chocolatey. Pretty much the definition of a mediocre dark beer. Possibly a little too bitter as far as the style goes. At least it’s pretty cheap.
