Apr 6, 2007 Thanks to jasonmech77 for sharing this...
Appears black with dark brown edges when held to the light. A small tan head slowly fades with streaky lacing left around the glass.
Smell is of coca, fruity, figs, cream, and roastiness.
Taste is the mentioned aromas highlighted by caramel in a delicious, mildly fruity stout.
Mouthfeel is medium/full bodied, fizzy up front, creamy at some points with roasty notes with mild thinness that doesn’t outweigh the decent parts of this beer.

Mar 27, 2009 Thanks to me, whee! Pours a rich brown color with medium off white color. Aroma is light fig, coffee, sweet malt. Taste of rich caramel malt, light hops, toffee, mild fruit and some alcohol. Finishes pretty smooth. Good stuff.

Feb 20, 2009 Bottle. Pours a deep cola brown with very little head. Nose is malty with a nice coffee tone. Nice medium espresso and chocolate flavors. Nicely balanced malts. Mouth is fairly full, sticky finish. Flavors fade on this beer from the initial intensity but still a pretty good IRS.

Mar 2, 2007 Draught at alehouse. Black like Niger delta crude, no head, no lacing Aroma of molasses and malt. Notes of chocolate, coffee and smoke with much alcohol. Bit of a hop finish with chocolate malt. Sip this. Don’t gulp it, you’ll miss something.

Feb 20, 2009 Bottle shared by sloth at SL. Thanks Bert. Nice black color, small head. Good nose of chocolate, roasted malts and a touch of hops. Taste was the same. Nice chocolate, coffee and roasted malt taste. Never heard of a "nitrogen" conditioned beer before. Texture and carbonation level was average. Pretty smooth. Overall a solid RIS. Thanks bert!
