| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Dec 18, 2007 Bomber. Pour is a nice, thick brown with a bit of a atan head, but nothing to outrageous. Aromas are roasty, with some smokey/peaty notes and a touch of espresso. Espresso bean flavor hits lead off, followed by a bit of smoke and a dark fruit/molasses finish that leaves a little alcoholic warmth. Mouthfeel is fairly creamy. Lovely drink in the dead of winter. incutrav (576), Woodbury, Minnesota, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Dec 18, 2007 Pretty creamy, but i dont get to much coffee or cappachino in the smell or palate, even when warmed. Tasted more like a typical stout to me. Some toffee/coco aftertaste w a little coffee. Smooth for 8.3 ABV fattibobatti (246), Tallahassee, Florida, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | Dec 17, 2007 poured a dark brown with a dirty brown head. aroma is malt and roast. taste included fresh coffee, roast, and chocolate. finish was dry, almost chalky. body was on the thinner side which was a con. alcohol well hidden. hellbilly (1532), scottsdale über alles, Arizona, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | Dec 17, 2007 pours a transparent near black shade of brown. it’s topped with a fluffy tan head that leaves when it damn well pleases...aroma is initially metallic malt. but it calms to reveal dark roasty malts, chocolate, cream and spent coffee grounds. flavor is the same with the addition of some vanilla notes. it’s quite dry and bitter with a slight hop presence. it also finishes dry and bitter with a lingering burnt coffee aftertaste. the body is a bit thin but gets creamier as it warms... wickedpete (629), Lexington Park, Maryland, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Dec 16, 2007 Opaque brown with a tall tan head that leaves generous lacing on the glass. Sweet brown sugar aroma with roasted notes. Thick body with an intense chocolaty sweetness up front lending to a roasted bitterness of coffee flavors. jimhilt (1687), Bow, New Hampshire, USA
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Dec 15, 2007 Pours with a light brown, five-finger head that goes slowly to a thin layer, leaving a good lace. Light carbonation
and heavy bodied. Virtually black color. Nose is roasted coffee. Smooth, roasted/burnt coffee flavor. Lingering
burnt coffee after taste. $6.99 for a 22oz bottle from Haggens Beaverton, OR. mar (1916), Dallas, Texas, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Dec 14, 2007 black pour with a head that lasts quite a while. lots of chocolate and coffee on the nose but that’s about it. the head tastes like coffee and it’s actually quite thick for what i was expecting. nice coffee aftertaste as well.

| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Dec 14, 2007 Pours very dark brown with brown head. Nice aroma of coffee and chocolate. Flavor also has lots of roast coffee and chocolate with some cream in there. Palate is a little thinner than i expected but still nice. Overall a pretty nice beer. Has a good alcohol punch but not overbearing(although my buzz is strong right now). pretty nice beer.
