Nov 29, 2005 This was ok - but not as great as I hoped. Good coffe nose, nice dark brown pour, short tan head. Tasted a little to much like coffee a little fake. Otherwise a descent stout, but not the best, also a little watery.

Nov 27, 2005 12 oz bottle pours black with a short tan head that fades to a film and laces a little down the sides of the english pint glass. Aroma is straight up roasted coffee. Flavor is quite the same. A touch of chocolate comes through also. Bitter finish. Palate is medium bodied. A very drinkable stout and tasty to a coffe lover like myself. Rather one dimensional though but definitely drinkable.

Nov 26, 2005 Bottle courtesy of CharlesDarwin. Bottled the fourth week in December of ’04. Pours a jet-black with a thin chestnut head. Though subtle, the aroma is all rich, roasty coffee. Bitter, sour and roasty malty flavors throughout. Some hints of coffee. A little bit of a sour, coffee-esque bitter finish. This has definitely aged too long. I’d like to try a fresh bottle sometime.

Oct 24, 2005 Has a great coffee ground aroma which matches the beer name/ Black body witha tan head. The flavor was weak like watered down coffer with some bitterness. Leaves a coffee aftertaste on palate.

Oct 4, 2005 Pours a dark brown color. Smells of dark chocolate, coffee, roast. Taste is dark chocolate more then anything with coffee supporting it from the background. The chocolate was too over the top in my opinion.

Sep 23, 2005 Very dark with a tan head that fades away to nothing. Nose coffee, molasses, and wood smoke. Flavor is reasonably rich, coffee is definitely there but not overpowering, balanced with deep molasses sweetness. Somewhat astringent and bitter. Reasonably full body, but feels a bit undercarbonated.

Sep 10, 2005 Poured a very dark brown with a medium tan head. Aroma of ash, tangy smoke, and light notes of chocolate. I drink black coffee 2-3 times a day and I don’t smell any in here. Roasted malt flavor with more of the tangy smoke. Flavor is watery and body is light. I was happy about opening this beer. The label made it very appetizing. Big disappointment.
