Oct 30, 2009 Backlog. Bottle. Sweet chocolate and roasted malts throughout the experience. Otherwise, it is rather syrupy and sweet.

Oct 29, 2009 Bottle,
has a dark pour (looks dark brown-black, is a clear dark ruby when held against a light) with about a two finger light tan and chocolate colored head, this beer left nice tan colored lacing on the glass as I drank,
aromas of sweet chocolate, roasted malt, faint coffee, chocolate sweetness,
flavors of roasted malt, chocolate, and coffee with some sweetness,
some hop bitterness and roasted malt bitterness at the finish,
finish has little sweetness and there is some coffee roasted malt flavors after the finish,
has a medium mouth feel and has some creaminess on the palate,
a nice tasty, enjoyable stout.

Oct 29, 2009 Bottle. Nopse is sweet and sticky - hints of malt, but a lot of candy bar smells here. Taste is similar - very, very sweet, but not cloyingly so, just a lot of caramel, condensed sweet milk and brown sugar. Slightly offset by the roasty malt at the back. All in all - very drinkable stout on a snowy night.

Oct 24, 2009 bottle, pours black with a thin white head. Sweet whipped cream and dark malt aroma. Nice flavor, not over the top sweet but nice roasted malt burnt sugar and a light carmel sweetness. Mouth is lightly carbonated. Not bad, nothing stands out though.

Oct 23, 2009 On tap at Mellow Mushroom in Lexington, KY. Dark in appearance, with a good tan creamy head. Aroma is sweet, chocolate (but not dark chocolate), and malt. Taste is sweet - even my non-beer conoisseur wife immediately noticed the sweetness - with chocolate and light-roast coffee notes. Smooth in the mouth, but not light...or heavy. Very enjoyable.

Oct 14, 2009 Had this at GABF 2009. It is a damn fine milk stout. Pours black with a creamy tan head. Aroma is roast, milk chocolate, and sweet malt. Flavor is roasted malt, sweet caramel, rich milk chocolate, coffee and cream. Palate is medium-full and very smooth. Overall a great example of the style.
