| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Jun 13, 2008 Pours black with a brown/tan frothy slowly dissapating head. Smells somewhat strongly of coffee, chocolate, and hints of caramel. Has a sweet/powerful taste of coffee, coffee and coffee. There is also flavors of coffee beans, hints of chocolate and a little caramel but hard to notice as the coffee really takes charge in the flavor. Very rich, complex, tasty, well balenced, smooth and creamy. I’ve never had a stout quite like this one, as it is very unique. If you love coffee/expresso’s you must try this brew!!!! One of the best brews I’ve had in a long time I must. Wow... twitcher (293), framingham, Massachusetts, USA
| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 9/10 | 5/5 | 17/20 | Jun 24, 2008 bottle. Thick, opaque, heavy black pour. Surprisingly big medium brown head that foams up with no signs of clearing. Thick aromas of burnt malt and a huge dose of coffee (suprise!). Flavors of unsweetened coffee and big heavy chunks of roasted malt. Some middling bitterness hangs around too. Holds the 9.5% very well- no excessive booze heat. Finish/mouthfeel is superb- very thick, smooth, and silky on the palate. Superb coffee stout- possibly better from the bottle than previous samples from the tap?? aplusbreaks (330), , Colorado, USA

Pours an impenetrable black with a thick mocha head. Aromas of coffee and dark chocolate. If you’ve ever had chocolate covered coffee beans, that’s what Péché Mortel smells like. Flavors of bitter chocolate, coffee, and dark roasted malts. Full bodied and nicely carbonated. Alcohol is well hidden. Thanks Again Tim. kubilai (34), , Quebec, Canada
| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Aug 9, 2008 Great discovery. Aroma of black chocolate and expresso coffey. Black color with nice light brown foam. Flavor of coffee as well with a bit of ashes in the palate. Very nice IS. noncaloric (617), Madison, Wisconsin, USA
| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Sep 18, 2009 Pours opaque brown black. The frothy tan head has good retention, leaves a sticky lacing. First bit of aroma is caramel and aroma, and then the coffee kicks in, oily, aromatic, and lasting. Flavor is principally espresso, and a lot of it. There’s enough coffee here that if you want, you can ignore the thickness, roastiness, and alcohol of it all, and pretend it’s an iced americano. Underneath all the coffee, there’s roasted bitterness, and a bit of caramel sweetness to balance it. Full bodied, creamy, slightly tannic. Delicious but noticeably one-dimensional towards the coffee department. Linnet (121), Umeå, Sweden
| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Dec 4, 2009 Deeeep black colour, thin brown head and a thick lacing on the glass.
Aroma is full of coffee, coffee, ashes, tar almost like an ash tray, but in a good way. Flavour is also dominated by coffee, is extremely unbalanced and acidic so much so that it makes it fantasticly interesting and also demanding. Mouthfeel is smooth, just smooth. One word Ashes! scoth (281), Fort Collins, Colorado, USA

Aroma of coffee, chocolate, plum, molasses, oak, with a slight earthy edge. Full bodied, smooth, slightly dry. Strong dark-roast coffee flavor, big malt sweetness up front with chocolate, toffee, pine and grass. Medium bitter finish. Barrios (858), Nashville, Tennessee, USA
