Mar 15, 2009 Beautiful looking dark beer with a nice head to start. Head left quick, but flavor is good. Balanced and smooth there is a hint of sweetness and a nice velvety texture.

Jul 24, 2007 Draft at the brewery. Nose is light cream and butter notes atop some low level roast. Sweet sugars (molasses) in the nose as well. Creamy palate up front, with sweet coffee creamer tasted, any roast in this stout comes off instead as toasted white bread. Pale and dusty, with some small hint at bourbn at time... but overall I think this needs a lot of work.

Jul 23, 2007 Draft @ Golden Avalanche, pre-BCTC beerventure. Pours a dark, cherry-cola color; medium tan head with great retention and lacing; nice pour. Sweet caramel and nougat (tootsie rolls, actually) in the aroma; slightly buttery. Sharp carbonation in a medium-to-full mouthfeel: chewy caramel and milk chocolate, with a dense, sweet malt core; still shows a bit too much diacetyl, almost like buttery popcorn. Pretty drinkable and reasonably ok, but slightly off. Medium, caramel and sugary finish.

Apr 11, 2006 Tap. Probably the best beer the Kutztown Tavern regularly produces. It appears fairly dark with a rough off white head. I do not believe the head overwhelmingly creamy or rich in any capacity. One can detect roasted dark chocolate and roasted hops. The alcohol content is solid and makes for a warming beverage in the late fall.

Mar 8, 2005 Draft at the Main Line Brew Fest. Deep black colored, with medium tan head. Aroma of roasty malt, some chocoff. Tastes malty, with more chocolate and some vanilla elements. Not bad.
