Sep 3, 2004 Bottled, thanks SpringsLicker! Very black with brownish head. Coffee aroma. Medium sweet with clean rounded mouthfeel. Malty with some molasses and chocolate. Warming and hearty, a well balaced stout.

big sweet roasted and coffee aroma, lots of sweet creamy roasted malt flavor, lasting light bitter finish, still a great stout after all these years with a bit more sweetness,

Jul 4, 2003 Opaque. Dense, fudgey aroma - toffeeish malts, figs, nuts - high enjoyable. Touch of iron in the chocolatey body. Moderate sweetness. Good balance.

This beer rocks!
Pours as black as Midnight. Don’t spill it on anything. OxyClean couldn’t get that stain out. Small, khaki head doesn’t last or leave momentos.
The nose is of smoke, chocolate covered cherries, espresso and blackstrap molasses.
The flavor is well-balanced and true to the aroma. Hearty, burnt, bitter flavor.
Very full-bodied with an oily mouthfeel and feisty carbonation. Short, dry, toasty finish. Excellent, world class brew!
