Bottle (300ml): Coffee-black coloured, small brownish head; sweet coffee, dark malt and roasted malt in the nose, hints of liquorice,too; not very dry bitter flavour, medium bodied; fruity and (port-)vinous finish with a lingerin (malty-)bitter aftertaste. A good and easy-drinking Stout........

(Bottle 30 cl) Clear, dark brown with a red hue and a dense and creamy cappuchino-style head. Roasted, vinous aroma with the alcohol showing. Only a medium body, very smooth mouthfeel and mildly roasted malt accents - no ashtray here. Again the alcohol is really shining through. Not a great stout, but actually a rather pleasant drink. 090207

300mL bottle, no date from heemer77, thank you Eric. Pours black with a half finger dark beige head. Aroma of some chocolate, roasted malts, coffee liquer, paper, and possibly a bit of bourbon. Flavor is very boozy with roasted malts and some chocolate, a bit of wood and a bit of acidity. Dry slightly bitter finish. Smooth low carbonation, light-medium body--moreso than what I would’ve liked. Pretty decent.

Dark brown, film for head. Faint coffee and chocolate, seems oxidized, can’t find a date on bottle though. Flavor has a nice chocolate kick to it up front, but fades into light sourness int he finish, could be past it’s prime. Body thin and watery.

Duane shared a bottle of this with me. Strong chocolate aroma with some coffee as well. A bit thin on the palate and too strong on the coffee for me. Definitely did taste like dad’s homebrew.

bottle, thanks to heemer77 for finding this one and giving me a bottle recently. great chocolatey aroma. flavor had more coffee and licorice than chocolate. this beer tasted just like my batch of homebrew stout of early 2006.

Bottle courtesy of matta. Pours dark brown with a tan head. Smells of chocolate, licorice, bread, some alcohol. Taste is fruity with some chooclate and more lingering alcohol. Finish is lightly sweet and boozy.

Bottled. Poured a clear, very deep brown with garnet highlights.. medium cap of creamy beige head. Enjoyed the bitter nose of burnt dark chocolate malt, coffee, licorice, and sugarcane sweetness. Flavor was not as good... poor balance of sweetness against the burnt dark malts and alcohol.. slightly cloying at the finish... lighter body on this one, and it only flowed decently. Some dark fruit appeared with the licorice and coffee in the flavor. Man.. get that sweetness level down a tad... pick up a bit more of the nice expresso bitterness... and this could be really good.
