Commercial Description:
You want bitter? You got it! Very malty with a strong roast barley flavour. Black as pitch and so thick you could just about eat it with a spoon. An excellent stout.

Draught at Coopers Ale House, Adelaide. Appears almost black with a creamy beige head. Strong roasted malt aroma with underlying chocolate & coffee. Smooth creamy mouthfeel with a bitter hoppy finish. A classic stout.

Pours dark black; initially a brown head that fades to nothing; no lacing, though I drank this 12 oz bottle over a couple hours. Nice, full, warm aroma of chocolate, roast, caramel, and vanilla. Tastes the way it smells but slightly tart; the light bitterness in the finish does not quite stand up to the roastiness, so some might say this is unbalanced, but I personally don’t mind. Probably a bit thin in the body for the style; moderately sticky. Drinkable, yet forgettable.

Not the best and certainly not the worst. Maybe I had this beer on a non-stout day. Beer feels a bit fizzy while festering on pallette....something I don’t usually notice in a stout. I do not find this beer to be as bitter as described by some others. All in all, this is still a decent overall stout.

Pours black with big chunky sediment at the bottom of my dimpled mug. Large tan head that dissipates to a nice tan lacing. I’ve had this brew in Australia but never rated it. So here it goes from the states. Aroma is chocolate, roast, coffee. Nice thick mouthfeel, I still like this stout even though I’m not on the beaches of Australia. Just a little watered down but has good flavor and a nice, slightly bitter aftertaste. Refreshing for a stout.

Bottle. Clear dark brown color with a average, frothy, good lacing, mostly diminishing, beige head. Aroma is moderate to light heavy malty, dark chocolate, licorice, light vanilla. Flavor is moderate to heavy sweet and moderate bitter with a average to long duration. Body is medium, texture is oily, carbonation is soft. (260208)

Very bitter tasting beer, it almost tastes like cold coffee. Lots of stuff going on this beer but I’m not sure I like it. I wouldn’t buy again.
