| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Feb 13, 2009 Nice coffee, malty aroma with a pleasant coffee/ toffee taste. Not one to take lightly but the alcohol was not overbearing. Very pleasant finish as well. One of the nicer stouts I have had. Thanks CB! kimcgolf (835), Dacula, Georgia, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | Feb 10, 2009 Poured from the bomber to a dark brown with ruby tints. Aroma was a coffee-toffee mixture, with a hint of roasted nutty malts. Mouthfeel was full and slightly chewy and the taste mirrored the nose. The only surprise was that the 8.3% alcohol never made itself known in either the nose or taste. Nonetheless, the finish was smooth and long. mwelsh13 (483), Maryland, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Feb 9, 2009 22oz bottle pours medium brown with a slight tan head. Aroma of coffee and toffee. Medium body with a good sweet body (think mil stout0 and a good bit of coffee, but not overbearing. A bit of dryness and bitterness at the end. Not bad. cblado (150), Wisconsin, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Feb 8, 2009 22 oz bomber. Poured a dark amber color, translucent. Some tan head, decent lacing. Aroma was malty with coffee notes, very pleasing. Flavor was coffee up front, with a smooth malted barley flavor. Palate was very smooth. Overall a great stout.

| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Feb 8, 2009 A- Pours a dark brown and black hue, brown head starts small and gets smaller, lacing is thin and wispy
S- Nose is, of course, coffee cappuccino, chocolate malts, roastiness, subtler hops, and alcohol
T- Initial taste is sweet coffee malts with a nice balance of dark chocolate, surprising hit of bitter hops comes midway, finishes with alcohol warming
M- Full-bodied beer, thick and chewy texture, moderate carbonation
D- Another bang-up Limited Release from Lagunitas, this is one big bold stout with a jolt of West Coast hops, the alcohol is far from mild and can detract from the overall drinkability but this is a wonderful overall entrant in this category ndubs360 (114), portland, Oregon, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 2/5 | 14/20 | Feb 6, 2009 Bottle. Dark black with a nice puffy brown head. nose dominated by nuts/coffee/and chocolate/ High ABV got me as toasted as the flavor of the malts. Great beer.
