Dec 6, 2006 Poured like a lighter impy stout does. Mild aroma here, hints of vanilla, roast, and toffee. Similar flavor, but with some strength: roast, vanilla, butterscotch, and toast. Smooth and velvety, which makes it seem milder than it really is. Highly enjoyable.

Jul 2, 2006 1 ltr. swing-top 2005 bottle poured a very dark nearly opaque brownish black with a small lasting tan head. Aromas of mocha, dark chocolate, light licorice and a hint of smoke. Palate was medium bodied and smooth. Flavors of roasted malt, mocha, bitter chocolae, hint of licorice and light smoke with a smooth lingering bittersweet finish.

Aroma is very malty, chocolatey and slightly roasty. Smells like ice cream malt quite a bit. Deep black with slight ruby hues and a thumb thick, but quickly fading tan head. Fore is burnt and bitter. Hops are very piney and strongly concentrated. Chocolate malt and cocoa through the middle and into the finish. Powdered ice cream malt lingers in the finish.
