Pours a deep black with a nice cocoa brown head. Nice aroma of cocoa and biscuit. Flavor is so smooth and deep. Rich chocolate and roasted notes. Nice long finish.

Jan 2, 2010 This stout is better a little warm than ’fridge cold.’ I didn’t get as many delicious flavors when it was cold. I really enjoyed this stout more after it warmed up a bit. This beer poured black with a very dark brown head. The head left a nice trail of lacing around the glass. The nose was full of hops, vanilla, a slight hint of caramel, milk chocolate and cream. The body was perfectly medium-light and went down all too dangerously. Dragonstooth featured a full body of flavors, with notes of milk chocolate, cream, a light hint of vanilla, a ton of hops and a slight hint of alcohol. The finish again featured tones of chocolate and cream, but some dry hops and alcohol was very present as well.

Dec 31, 2009 (bottle - 22 oz) Dark black pour with a thin tan head. Aroma is mildly roasted with some light cocoa and sweet malts. Smells like a mild RIS. Flavor begins with a heavy roast and a very smooth chocolate followup. Roasted coffee ground and cream come through in the middle and goes into a roasted and burnt malt finish. Finishes with a lingering and bitter aftertaste.

Dec 19, 2009 Sampled from the bottle and another stout from a great year of stouts! Pours blacker than black, slightly strong aroma but very pleasing, great mouthfeel and a smooth combo of chocolate, roasty, alcohol, and caramel. This is a real keeper!

Oct 30, 2009 On tap at Tangletown. Definitely tasted the burned flavor, but I always like burned stuff. Good thickness, good flavor, a pretty easy drinker.
