| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Dec 31, 2009 Black pour with brown head. Aroma of roasted malt and chocolate. Taste of roasted malt, light chocolate. Little bitter, little watery. Ibrew2or3 (2843), Safety Harbor, Florida, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Dec 30, 2009 12oz bottle pours very dark with dark brown edges and thin tan head. The aroma is organic, earthy and a bit oxidized with notes of toffee to create a toasted German dark bread sensation. The taste feels thin and begins with a brief moment of dark fruity esters. It then becomes modestly burnt with mild chocolate notes. It seems to end with a light burnt malt note mixing with faint dark chocolate. Rustyham (598), miami, Florida, USA
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Dec 21, 2009 Light and thin, roasty. Dark Malt flavor, like chocolate was as an afterthought, not the focus, rather weak. JCastner (108), New York, USA
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 9/20 | 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. hophead21112 (124), Louisville (LEWISville), Colorado, USA
| 2.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 2/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 9/20 | 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.

| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | 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. jeremytoni (1127), Swedesboro, New Jersey, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Dec 4, 2009 From a bottle poured black with a small amount of head, Nice toasted malty flavor with a lasting bitter finish. daknole (3032), Scottsdale, Arizona, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | 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.
