| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Apr 16, 2008 Black body, foamy beige head, no lacing. Aroma of raspberry syrup, roasted malt, baker’s chocolate in the background. Flavors of raspberry truffles, bittersweet chocolate and some smoke in the finish. Thin bodied. The raspberry appears almost artificial. Prostman (1077), Pennsylvania, USA
| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Apr 7, 2008 Only had a small sample of this from a growler but it seemed a little thin bodied for the style. GMCC2181 (883), Bear/Elkton, Delaware, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Feb 17, 2008 On tap at the Bel Air brewery, dark color. Small white head. Not much to smell. At first the taste was a typical stout of coffee and malt, but the after taste was a burst of rasberry that was just the right amount. Nice hint of chocolate at the end as well. Smooth. I really liked this beer. Over a great stout! 45thstbrewer (94), Conowingo, Maryland, USA

| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Feb 9, 2008 on tap-pours a creamy light brown head and black color with red tint. Aroma is cocoa powder first then dark chocolate and raspberry (Kathy gets the raspberry first). Taste is dark chocolate, candied raspberry, malty with a secondary/mild hops backbone. OK carbonation. Occasional. 3.0 On nitro-roastier, creamier. 3.2 bma4573 (136), Mechanicsville, Maryland, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Feb 7, 2008 Draft at Bowie. Pours a dark chocolate color with a thick creamy head, smells of sweet rasberry and chocolate. Sweet chocolaty taste, with a strong rasberry finish. Good overall beer and was worth the trip. dsm (109), Baltimore, Maryland, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Feb 6, 2008 Draft at Fell’s Point. Pours dark with a small head. The aroma is a lot of chocolate and raspberry, sweet candy. The taste is a TON of raspberry with a dry, roasted malt finish. It is sweet, but not so sweet that one pint is hard to finish. A second pint in a row would be a little much though. Overall, I liked this beer a lot, and I give it extra points for being a little out of the norm and for taking risks. edden (927), cow- lumbus, Ohio, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | May 14, 2007 5/10/07: On Tap, Bowie. Nose of roasted coffee, raspberry and caramel malt; actually reminded me of smelling a raspberry ghirardelli chocolate square. Nutty brown body with a light tan head. Rich and powerful flavor of burnt malt, black coffee and raspberry zest. Finish is bitter and flat. This is my favorite DuClaw brew so far, I was pleasantly surprised.
