Oct 12, 2009
Bottle from the FCB mixed 12 pack.
Aroma- Coffee mostly, with chocolate at a close second. Very rich aroma. Medium green-apple esters.
Appearance- Very dark brown, almost black. No clarity, with a small, tan head that dissapates quickly.
Flavor- High in hop flavor and bitterness, but it does not persist. The chocolate and coffee flavors take over quickly. Great malt presence, which is mostly represented by chocolate and coffee roasted flavors. Sweetness is quite low.
Palate- Light to medium body. Little alcohol warmth.
Overall- A very tasty beer. It is a stout that is extremely drinkable.

Dec 12, 2009 Smokey, chocolate aroma. Pours a jet black with a tan head. Thin body, not much going on. Very dry and not much of a finish. Big disappointment.

Dec 11, 2009 Dark brown pour with a tan head. Aroma consists of sweet grain, coffee, not much else. Not many detectable flavors in this one... it has medium sweetness, and is lightly bitter with medium body, slick feel, soft carbonation with an abrupt finish. Blah.

Dec 9, 2009 Bottle as part of a mix6. Nose is pretty bland - dark malt, light roasts and a weird vegetal earthiness that doesn’t really fit. Tastes standard stout - some hazelnut and creamy roasted malt. Light bitter coffee finish. Unremarkable, though quite drinkable.

Dec 2, 2009 Dark brown. Roasty and toasty aroma with some bitter chocolate and light espresso notes. Flavor has some burned chocolate brownie notes and bitterness. Ok.

Dec 1, 2009 It pours an off-white/light brown, diminishing head. It is medium bodied with burnt chocolate at the fore and slight nuttiness. Nothing you need to wrap your mind around.

Nov 27, 2009 Dark pour with tan head. Lovely chocolate arouma. Nice chocolately flavor with a little charcoal. finishes with a hoppy bite. Good, but not as good as the double chocolate stout.

Nov 22, 2009 roasty chocolatey and hoppy. now that makes a good chocolate stout. just a bit of tree bark and bitter keeps it a grown up drink. head like a rootbeer and sweet without the rb flavor. refreshing and touch of earth gratefully not thick in the body at all. what i would expect from fort collins. just a touch of leather.
