Dec 6, 2007 Black with light ruby edges. Creamy tan head. Pleasant coffee like roasty aroma. Taste is friendly and similar to creamed coffee and roasty malt. Light roast lingers in the finish, not much bitterness, but again a very thin body detracts majorly from this beer and keeps it from being recommendable.

Jun 28, 2007 On tap at Chicago’s in Vegas. Pour was dry stout-lilke, dark deep brown-black, slow developing nitrogen-induced. Lacing was stellar, light rings. Aroma was roasted barley, some metallic type notes. The flavor was roasted malts, touch of bitterness from the same, metallic finish with some fruity hints. The metallic aspects were a turnoff, would rather have a Guinness... or, um, a completely different beer. Mouthfeel wasn’t full enough.

Oct 16, 2006 This draft brew from the brewery poured a head of foamy finely sized bubbles that was mostly lasting and left behind a dark ruby red brown colored body and a good lacing. The mild aroma was malty. The thin flavor contained notes of semi-sweet dark malt and mild malt.

Aug 3, 2006 On tap at the brewpub in Vegas. Thick, black tar colored pour with a thick viscous mocha colored head with excellent lacing. Has a slightly winey aroma with a wee bit of dirt. Thick, creamy mouthful, coats your mouth. Strong coffee notes in the flavor, some trailing chocolate, decent bitterness. Very good brewpub stout. Best of my session here at Chicago.
