Feb 28, 2007 Flavor is stronger than that of the draught...head not as cool looking..not as creamy and such. Dark look, well-rounded palate. tiny bit of bitterness, but nothing too bad

Feb 23, 2007 (330 ml bottle (lost my notes on this so have to wing it)) More sweet and syrupy, perhaps less roasty than Guinness Draught...Pours dark tobacco brown with one finger of caramel brown head. Aroma of dark bittersweet chocolate, coffee, light roast and molasses. Head feels creamy and mouthfeel is smooth, lightly prickly and slightly syrupy. Some sloppy rings of lacing. Taste is more molasses and coffee sweetness than other Guinness. Some roastiness but subdued in favor of sweeter qualities. Excited to see it, and best beer I found in Bahamas.

Feb 20, 2007 Used to be able to get this in the bottle here in Cowtown but sadly no more. Bigger, Roaster, Fuller and a way better beer than the regular stuff. Page 204 of Michael Jackson’s Great Beer Guide only 370 Classic Brews of of his 500 to go.

Feb 4, 2007 Bottle: Almost black coloured, lacing mid-sizedtanned creamy head; robust roast-malty, bit fruity/vinous nose with a touch of barrique; creamy MF, medium to full bodied, strong bitter flavour; lingering dry and bitter finish with hints of liquorice and a certain sourness in the aftertaste. A great, complex beer from a big brewer............

Feb 2, 2007 Bottle sampled in June 2006: Pours a mostly opaque with dark brown edges and a thin, lightly-lacing tan head. Aroma of sweet milk chocolatey malt and a hint of smoke. Body starts with a nice sticky caramel and chocolate maltiness finishing drier and more roasty. Well-balanced and enjoyable with a fairly full palate.
