| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 2/5 | 14/20 | Jan 13, 2007 Bottle. Dark Brown pour with a light tan head. Aromas of light chocolate and hints of coffee...not a very pungent aroma but not bad either. Flavors of light roasted malt, bakers chocolate and a bit of coffee were present. Pretty thin body and a bit overly carbonated...finishes somewhat dry. Pretty middle of the road all the way around. asteele8 (270), Mukilteo, Washington, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jan 7, 2007 Bottle. Pours black with a nice tan head on top. Aroma is full of coffee and chocolate. Flavor is hints of chocolate with coffee and oatmeal coming through. Nice roasty taste. Light hops taste comes in to make the beer not overly sweet. The only thing holding this beer back from being tops is the flavor is a little watered out. stison42 (318), Blacksburg, Virginia, USA
