May 27, 2007 On tap at the Fitgers Brewhouse in Duluth, MN, pours a dark, near opaque brown brew with a thick and creamy tan head that slowly dissolves. Tan head stays with the beer. Aroma of dark chocolate, roasted caramel malt, some coffee and flowery hops. Taste is smooth, creamy, lightly carbonated, and heavy body. Finish is smooth, and little hop bitterness.

Mar 4, 2007 Black pour smells of prunes and low-chocolate mocha. Flavors of plums, prunes… rich, full roasted African coffee, some chocolate. A hint of something weird like beet. Well-integrated elements of taste with a spot-on palate…dense, but not viscous, smooth, but not slippery.

Jan 22, 2007 Pours a deep dark brown. Screw it, call it black. A good inch of creamy tan head that lasted for a good long time. Excellent thick lacing.
Mild roastiness in the aroma. More roastiness in the taste. Big malty tasty beer, very rich, with lots of roasted grain, strong black coffee, and mild dark chocolate. Pretty smooth with a rather full body. Excellent roast in the finish.

Oct 10, 2006 ABR 2006. I don’t think Fitger’s makes a bad beer and this might be Minnesota’s premier brewer. The beer is black, and the aroma has roasted malt and light smoke. Some coffee in the flavor, more roasted grains and a moderately palate. It is very smooth and easy to drink.

Jan 9, 2006 Nice creamy smooth stout served on nitro with a frothy, quickly fading tan head. Smoky roasted malt aroma and a similar flavor, but the oats counteract the dry coffee like finish. Thinner bodied than I would like from a flavorful stout. But still very tasty.

Aug 28, 2005 Was quite excited about trying this one. It had a nice dark pour with a thick, creamy head. I noticed just a faint oat smell. It had a roasted flavor with hints of caramel and chocolate. There was a good balance of flavor but it seemed a little on the thin side. Yay for Duluth!
