Jun 14, 2009 Tap at the High Point brewpub on 2/3/08: Barely transparent dark mahogany with a thin coating of wispy-lacing light tan head. Aroma of lightly sweet toasty dark caramel malts and some nutty character and roastiness. Body starts with average fullness and a mild caramel and milk chocolate sweetness throughout with a touch of earthy bitterness toward a semi-dry finish. A decent oatmeal stout.

Jul 11, 2005 Very black pour with medium, tan head. Big chocoff aroma, with a taste of chocoff, some molasses, and a very crisp finish. A tad thin at the finish, but very complex.

Feb 6, 2009 Draught @ Columbia location. Dark brown, fun splotchy off-white head. MMM cocoa aroma is very clean with nice asphalt notes. Tastes tarter than expected but segues into a licorice sweetness. Husky-sweet and very nice.

Sep 26, 2005 16 oz draft at the brewpub in Myrtle Beach, SC. Poured black with a creamy tan head that lingered and laced pretty well. Chocolate and coffee on the aroma. Flavor is much the same Chocolate, coffee, a bit of brown sugar and somewhat dry on the finish. Palate was about what I expect from a stout.. Full bodied.. Definitely the best of the 3 brews that I got to sample with dinner.
