May 2, 2005 I got this thanks to some kind soul at the Dark Lord pre-release party. I can’t remember who brought it (KP?) but thanks. Black witha ring of slightly yellowish brown foam. Thick, oily mouthfeel. Roasty with a deep chocolate complexity. Very smooth drinking with enough malt to back up everything else.

May 1, 2005 Special thanks to kp for bringing this to the 3F Dark Lord Release party. Pours dark black with a brown head. Scents of roasted malt, banana, oak, and nuts come to the forefront. Flavor is full bodied, with a sweet chocolate/roastedness lasting throughout. This beer was awesome, the recipe would be worthy to buy seeing that they are out of business.

Apr 30, 2005 Appearance is a brown head on top of a black body with good carbonation. aroma is dark roasted malts, dark fruits, green coffee, oak. Flavor is roasted malts, touch of chocolate, oakeness. Palate is full bodied, a touch of bitterness, very appealing. Why’d this company go out of business? I’ll never understand.

Apr 9, 2005 Beautiful black body with a fine brown head on top. Pretty lacing as well. Chocolate malts, some dark fruits, flowers, and a hint of sugar cookies make the the aroma very nice. Great taste. Chocolate, with a sugary cookie compliment.A bit of bitterness to balance this out and some dark fruits for an interesting kick. This was really good and its a shame this is no longer being made.
