Jun 26, 2008 Pours dark brown with a tan head with an aroma like toasty grain. The taste is deep with a roasted malt flavor with hints of vanilla, coffee and chocolate. Mouth feel from the bottle is a bit thin. (I had this on draught with nitro and it was creamy and nice). Overall I think it’s a very nice beer

May 23, 2008 Bottle: Black in color with a brown head that faded quickly. The nose is filled with milk chocolate, coffee, vanilla and maple syrup. In the mouth it is quite carbonated which makes it come off feeling light on the palate and the flavors consist mainly of weak coffee along with a citric edge toward the end. Overall, a bit thin and in need of umph in the mouth.

May 22, 2008 Very good beer, i enjoyed it a lot. A lot of roast and coffee with just the right amount of vanilla to sweeten it out. Finishes with a light bitterness to even it all off. Flavor balanced perfectly, just a little lacking in the "wow" factor.

An old favorite of mine. Pours a very dark brown/red with almost no head. Very low carbonation. Roasted and carmel malts dominate aroma with vanilla and oak and a bit of chocolate.
Flavor follows the aroma closely with a enough hop bitterness to balance.

May 15, 2008 Bottle pours black with a thin tan head. Has wonderful aromas of chocolate, vanilla, some oak, and roasted malts. Has a light mouthfeel. Taste does not live up to the wonderful aromas flowing from my glass. It has some vanilla flavors with a roasty finish that seem to undertone the great smells. Overall its a good brew.
