GABF 06. Pours black with a tan head. Aroma is chocolate, roasty, and some bitter hops. Taste is bitter hops and roasty up front, then sweet and smooth in the middle. The body is full and the texture of this beer was velvety.

22 oz bottle via Liquid Solutions. Pours a midnight pitch black with a large tan head. Aroma has roasted notes of licorice, coffee, and chocolate. .It is bold and complex with many layers, with primarily flavors of roasted coffee, licorice, and chocolate (and a lot more underneath). Finish and aftertaste are dry and roasted and lingering. The citrus/piney hops balance it all out quite nicely.

Bottle. Black body, creamy chocolate head. Muted roast, very muted dark chocolate in aroma. Very dry bitter roast flavour with mild malt in the middle is a bit one dimensional. Average to medium palate. Solid, but lacks transendence. Thanks Larry Pitonka.

22oz pours black in color with a nice chocolate milk shake like head that’s rather tall and lasts for a while before it leaves a spider web lacing. As it warms up a lot of alcohol and coffee seem to come out of the aroma. A sweet roasted flavor dominates the palate with chocolate, coffee, molasses and alcohol. Other than the weird cartoonlike artwork of the label, its an enjoyable stout.

Dark brown color,nice tan head that had a good hang time then faded slowly to leave a bit of a lace behind.The aroma was malty and roasty with a nice sweet side and maybe some hints of a bitter chocolate.The flavor was much better then i was expecting.Roasty and malty with a nice sweetness and some hints of chocolate and coffee,as the brew warms up a bit the coffee and chocolate become a little more pronounced but over all i’d have to say i really like this brew and want more for later.

Pouring a deep brown, nearly black body with a creamy brown head, this ale has an aroma of roasted malt, freshly ground coffee, molasses, bittersweet chocolate, and alcohol. The latter, also noticeable in the flavor, is something of a surprize considering it’s (relatively) not that strong. It tastes of sweet, lightly roasted malts whith chocolate, coffee, and the afore mentioned alcohol. Nicely blended with a moderately dry finish.
