Has a roasted malty chocolate finish with some hints of coffee. spikester (438), Salem, Oregon, USA Aug 29, 2008 Not a big fan of stouts but this one was quite good. Huge tan head that went away rapidly, good amount of lacings. Aroma is cocoa and roasted malts. Taste is some coffee, cocoa, nice roasted malts, bitter hops. Alcohol a bit noticable but O.K. Pretty well balanced for the style. marcus (1053), Sacramento, California, USA Aug 11, 2008 This black ale poured with a massive creamy tan head that subsided fairly quickly. There is a hearty roasted malt flavor with some chocolate notes and a slightly soapy and bitter aftertaste. Not bad. bikesandbeers (419), San Diego, California, USA Aug 1, 2008 nearly black with a big creamy head. roasty choclate aroma. flavor is choclaty with a smooth creamy finish. very drinkable, nothing special IrishBoy (2163), Bakersfield, California, USA Jul 25, 2008 12 oz bottle from Enniskillen; nose of chocolate, coffee, vanilla, and light yeastiness; very dark brown with a big, cinnamon-tinged tan head; flavor of lots of chocolate and very light hop bitterness; finish lightly bitter.
