aobecksy (648), Middle of no where, Ohio, USA Sep 15, 2007 Dark black with dark brown lacing decent head; chocolate and butterscotch; taste similar to sweet stout without coconut. Still thin though. crushinat0r (226), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Aug 5, 2007 Dark black with dark brown lacing head. Quite a nice looking beer. Smells chocolate and coffee with a hint of butter and caramel. Unfortunately it smells a lot better then it tastes, it has a very weak follow through. shintriad (697), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Apr 26, 2007 Decent mocha aroma in a dark tan body, some coffee and roasted flavours but not much else to distinguish it from a Guinness clone. Extremely thin body and watery taste. Zymologist (30), Lakewood, Ohio, USA Mar 16, 2007 Ummm, if you aren’t a multi-national beer corp based in Ireland, there is no reason to destroy your stout by shoving it full of nitro. But that’s what’s happened here. Not bad for a nitro stout, but not good for beer. kujo9 (1044), North Ridgeville, Ohio, USA May 5, 2004 Draft: Opaque brown w/ a beige lasting head. Nice mellow roasty coffee aroma w/ hints of chocolate, very little fruitiness and no diacetyl. Very little coffelike flavor for a dry stout, well balanced. Also very little roasted bitterness. Little fruitiness; has a roasty finish and aftertaste and a very light acidity from dark grains. Very smooth m/f, creamy w/ low carbonation and a lighter body. Again, probably a beer that was made to not scare people away. Would be a good starter "dark" beer for people that "don’t like dark beers".
