May 24, 2007 Draft @ Capone’s. Pours a midnight black with a smallish tan head. Roasted malts & espresso dominate the aroma. Both are also very prevalent in the flavor, with some molasses and a smidge of woodsy hops. This is a hearty brew. Delicious. Thick & chewy that seems to coat your tongue!

Apr 20, 2007 brewery-bottled 750 from hopdog. Pours black as night with a really nice tan head that is still covering the top of the beer. Hearty stout aroma, with hints of roasted coffee and chocolate (I thought I smelled some chocolate cake). In the mouth it’s has nice, full body with moderate carbonation. Flavor is rich and complex, not as sweet as many imperials and nicely balanced with bitterness. Again coffee, chocolate, with more pronounced smokiness. Slight off note, which might be oxidation (I held on to this for a year or so), but excellent. Thanks a lot, hopdog!

Apr 17, 2007 Hand bottled 12oz from Kevin. Very cool! Enjoyed with friends from Ohio down for the weekend. Pours jet black with a light brown head. Molasses is strong in the aroma with notes of smoke, burnt malt, and grain. Hints of date towards the end. The flavor is roasted malt, strong molasses, hints of caramel and smoke. Lightly sweet. Full slick body and mouth feel. Quite enjoyable.
