| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Nov 13, 2009 Bottle - Pours deep and dark, wtih a tan head that goes away real quick. Smell is a blast of wonderful coffee, chocolate, slight booze, and a little milkiness. Taste is sweet up front, then transitions into dark roast coffee, tar, charcoal, roasty malt, chocolate, and cinnamon. It’s way smooth and feels good as it makes its way through the mouth. There’s a bit too much carbonation, but this is a nit. I like the way Central Waters does big beers, and this is no exception. Superb. BeerGestapo (740), Windsor, Pennsylvania, USA

Pours dark brown in color with zero head. Aroma of smoke, roasted malts and coffee. Taste is much of the same !!! However, the coffee was not robust, it’s kind of bland overall. Mouthfeel is medium in body with some dry bitterness at the finish. afireinside96 (835), Mountville, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Nov 10, 2009 Bottle shared by Dan (FooFaa) at the Beer Advocate - Brass Rail tasting. Poured clear brown with a small tan head. The smell was dominated by coffee both freshly roasted and freshly brewed with some other roasted notes in the background. I was disappointed the into find out that those fresh coffee notes didn’t carry over properly into the flavor of the beer. Instead the coffee tasted sour and stale like a late night cup of joe at Denny’s. TampaBrew (824), Tampa, Florida, USA
