| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jul 4, 2007 Black w/ brown bubbles. Smokey, roasty aroma of espresso & dark, bitter chocolate w/ notes of licorice. Thick, creamy feel. Flavour is roasty w/ a sweet underlying chocolaty, butterscotch maltiness. Finish is mildly smokey.

| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jul 4, 2007 Smoked stout? Really? The smoked character is certainly not the central piece to this beer. I find it more of a complimentary piece that accentuates the heavy malt backbone. As far as the stout characteristics are concerned, I find it pretty well done. Surprised at the viscosity that this one displayed. Good notes of chocolate and dates with a bit of vanilla dancing on the tongue. Again, the body and mouthfeel are unexpectedly chewy. A bit oily in fact. Not bad, but certainly no smoked beer. Ughsmash (4044), Waukesha, Wisconsin, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jul 4, 2007 Bottled. Poured a deep, inky black with a swirly dusting of deep brown head.. leaving a light ring. Aroma was of rich, deep, roasted chocolates and dark fruits with just a subtle hint of smoke.. sweet, herbal notes appear as it warms up a bit. Flavor has more rich, almost burnt chocolate at the core with plum skins and light smoke eminating outward.. some mild charred wood with mild smoke and vanilla riding through the finish.. tasty stuff! Heavier-bodied with a solid feel on the palate... medium, tacky-sweet chocolate finish. Good one! hellomynameis (794), Mayer, Minnesota, USA

Slightly bitter roasted aroma with some coffee to it. Not that exciting, really. joergen (8617), Frederiksberg, Denmark
