Sep 27, 2007 Too much coffee. It overpowers the natural stout flavors. This could have been a great stout.

Mar 7, 2006 On tap at Goose Island Stoutfest. Poured a very deep brown with a ring of off-white head on top. Nose was about 9 parts coffee and 1 part floral. Flavor was akin to cold coffee, and I struggled to find anything else in there... I enjoy coffee, so this was OK. Medium-bodied on the palate with persistent roasted coffee bitterness. 1 dimensional.

Mar 6, 2006 On tap @ the Stout Fest. Way too much coffee. Wouldn’t have known this was even beer if I hadn’t been @ the Stout Fest. This recipe needs reformulating.

Mar 21, 2005 Updated: Jul 26, 2005This dark black brew is pretty much of a one dimensional coffee stout. The aroma is coffee, and nothing else. The beer is fairly flat. There’s traces of malt, chocolate, and anise in the flavor, but mainly it’s old coffee grounds. Dry, disappointing finish. <font size=-4><a href=http://www.ratebeer.com/Places/ShowPlace.asp?PlaceID=16> Goose Island Beer Company - Clybourn, Chicago, IL<font size=-1>

Mar 20, 2005 On draught at clybourn. Black with a thin light brown head. Sweet chocolate, caramel, and a muted coffee made up the aroma. The body is flat and it starts off with a coffee flavor. The finish on this is sweet chocolate with coffee balancing the sweetness.
