Tap at the brewpub. Dark brown/black pour with a dark brown head. Aroma is sweet and quite coffeeish with a nice herbal dark chocolate character on the back. Rich chocolatey flavour with some lingering herbal notes. Roasty maltiness with some nice sweetness at the same time. Very nice balance of sweetness, dark malts, and roastiness. A very nice stout.

does not count  Jul 17, 2008 Beautiful deep dark dark bown, one shade shy of plack, with a nice light brown thick head that lasts. Aroma is nice, and about what you expect. Roasted nutty and carbon. Feels lighter than it looks, I waned more density to it, but not too thin. Starts with slightly sweet sweet chocolate, with a dark coffee bitterness. Malt and hops are ncely balanced a little towards the malty side. Biterness is there, but not too much bite. FInishes clean. Definitely something that I would buy again.

Jul 10, 2008 12 oz bottle. Roast and chocolate malts in the aroma. Black with small fine tan head. Slight lactic sourness in flavor with roast and chocolate. Light but creamy body with fairly dry chocolate finish without much astringency.
