stegosaurus (1852), Levittown, Pennsylvania, USA May 16, 2008 Bottle sampled with Mad_indian. Pours black with a good size beige head. Aroma of roast, oak, dark chocolate, light bourbon. The flavor is very smooth, chocolate, oak, slight bourbon, roast, and coffee. Excellent body, alcohol is well masked. Excellent brew. Rogueone (123), I F&ckin’ hate those guys from, Ohio, USA May 15, 2008 Bottle: Pours very dark black with a slowly dissipating carmel head. Aroma of chocolate and stale bacon. Full flavors of chocolate malts, smoke, and the dryness of oak. I can actually feel this beer on my teeth. Someone said velvety. Velvety is a good word. Mad_Indian (735), Levittown, Pennsylvania, USA May 14, 2008 Bottle from ebay, sampled with Stegosaurus. WOW. Beautiful black pour with aromas of chocolate, coffee and roast. A smoke roast chocolate flavor blended rather well. This is underated. Pigfoot (2201), Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA May 13, 2008 Dense blackness, dark as you get...huge head, burnt tan, slowly crumbling, leaving lace...
Roasty, toasty aroma, chocolate and espresso, yes, and more...carob and raisins, dark rum, and molasses...ah! Dark and lovely!
Whoa! Once in the mouth, it’s a delivery of rich, thick, deliciousness....whiskey-toned, a bit, mixed with dark chocolate...indulgent, decadent...full, but surprisingly smooth. Velvety...someone should paint a portrait of Elvis on this. Here comes the whiskey kick again...here comes the blackstrap...
I’m only halfway through the bottle, and I’m feeling mighty satisfied.
Do I wish I’d saved it for friends? Maybe, but I’m too content to worry about them now.
