Bottle.

Pours s deep black, viscous with a limited dark-tan head, leaving an iodine-colored lacing along the the sides of the glass when I swirl (have to admit I find that yellow tone somewhat offputting). Dark-roast aroma, hints of cherry juice. Roasty, almost smoky flavor, plenty of hops driving the whole affair to a relatively bitter finish. Tar, coffee, a whisp of soy sauce, mild sweetness.

Altogether quite a nice beer.

Bottle. Another solid stout from Dark Horse. Black body with a foamy, tan head that disappears. Aromas of vanilla, coffee, chocolate, roasted malt. The flavor is moderately sweet and lightly bitter. The finish is bitter.Flavors of licorice, espresso. Medium body, creamy smooth texture. Moderate carbonation. Very nice.

Pours a thick tar like color with very dark tan head that very quickly dissipates to no head....barely even lacing. Aroma is of definite espresso grounds. amazingly strong aroma. Flavor is of malts and espresso. Bitter chocolate flavors. Definite nut undertones. Carbonation is light. A very delicious oatmeal stout....delicious

This poured black in color with a very thin head of brown bubbles. The oatmeal was prominent in the nose and mouth along with a smokey/metallic edge. This was meidum-bodied, smooth and engaging.

more thanks to fantomas! Rich dark fruit, a little tar, with some alcohol in the nose. Pours black with no head. It looks thick! Strong dark fruits, intense, some tobacco, bitter chocolate and burnt coffee in the finish. good beer.

Bottle@Home. Strong sweet coffee aroma with black berries and a little dusty. Thick, black colored, brown head, good lace. Light sweet, very malty, roasted coffee bitterness, more sweetness in the finish. Thick mouthfeel and roasted malts dry.

12oz bottle. Aroma has notes of wood, oats, roasted malt, cocoa, red wine, molasses, and coffee. Small tan head that fully diminished and left little lace. Pitch black hue. Flavor is sweet with hints of coffee, cocoa, dark ripe fruit, and wood. Palate is very full bodied and oily flat. Very slight alcohol burn. A very good stout. You have to drink this one with a knife and fork it’s so thick. My favorite one out of the DH stout series.
