does not count  May 14, 2008 Phenominal! one of the best beers i have ever had. It has the hearty feeling of a stout but a tinge of sweetness. I can’t believe such a small brewery in my college town could make such an exceptional brew! TRY IT!

Pitch black, huge brown creamy-cloudy head, lots of lace. Dark roasted malty aroma with tobacco and some chocolate. Full-bodied - heavy, coffee and pipe tobacco overdose. Tarry finish. Soft palate. Some hops in the aftertaste. This is not a beer for fast drinkers!

May 14, 2008 Bottled (thanks jjpm74!). Pitch black colour, big brown bubbly head that takes it’s while before settling. Nice lace. Aroma is roasted malts, tobacco, smoke, coffee, chocolate and mild hints of vanilla. Flavour is tobacco, coffee, chocolate and some bittering hops. Coffee and some acidic notes in the aftertaste. A very pleasant brew.

May 11, 2008 Bottle courtesy Gillard. Pours black with a small tan head that fades to a ring leaving some lacing. Aroma of coffee, licorice, roasted malt, caramel, oats, dark chocolate, and a hint of dark fruit. Taste is the same as aroma. Medium full mouthfeel with a moderate amount of bitterness and well hidden alcohol. Very good.

May 10, 2008 Draft rating. Draft > Bottle, no question. The blurb is right other then coffee bender this is the closest thing to a serious cup of joe. Better is loaded with roasty coffe, bitter and black, yet sweet with oats and chocolate. A very delicate balance and is truely increadible on draft and great out of the bottle.
