Dec 8, 2002 Slightly bitter with some roasted malt. The body is too thin and watery for my taste.

Dec 8, 2002 I like it. It’s not complex or anything, it just tastes very nice! I am not sure why people are saying that it is 3.2%, my bottle does not mention anything about this and it’s not listed here. I’m sure that it is not extra strong though.

Dec 5, 2002 Eclipse Black color, medium tan head. Aroma is coffeeish. A medium to lighter bodied stout. Roasted malt flavors are chocolate, with a touch of coffee and toffee. It appears to be dry hopped. A very drinkable stout. Creamy and toasty and smooth. Mouthfeel is full and round. Finish is clean and smooth. Aftertaste is slightly bitter.

Dec 4, 2002 If there is anything more beautiful in the “Beer World” than a “Stout”, sitting in a Samuel Smith Nonick glass, I’m not sure what it would be. Deep dark and handsome on the pour, the head gigantean in size, spumous in texture with the lace a latticework of frothy bubbles that cover the glass. Nose is roasted grains, coffee, and bittersweet chocolate and quite sniffable. The beginning taste is that of sweet malt, the top skeletal in mouth feel, the finish hop spicy, minimally carbonated, the aftertaste cocoa dry and somewhat bitter. At 3.2 percent alcohol by weight, not likely to cause much damage to the liver, but personally I like the taste and other characteristics of this beer, although it could be a bit thicker in body, but hey it’s a pretty tasty beer nonetheless. Ranks #361 on my current 1000 beer master list.

Jun 7, 2002 So this brewer used to be known as Otto Brothers and now is called ’Grand Teton’ brewing, in honor, perhaps, of their move over a dramatic mountain pass into Idaho. Man, the drive is breathtaking - literally - you better be an adventuresome sort to do it, and love it! A bit of an adventure in this brew, too - a tad roasty, a tad pukey: day old oatmeal, cherry syrup, and roasted barley.

Feb 17, 2002 Found a bottle of this a few years back at local beer store, and went back and bought a few more. A decent stout, large head, creamy aftertaste, not my fave but better the Guinness and not too high on the $ list either.
