Dec 25, 2001 Sri Lanka? There was a lot of hype surrounding this one, and it lived up to it.

Jan 13, 2003 Black color, brown head. Light chocolate and a little roast in the nose. Sweet malt, licorice and a shot of alcohol in the body. Roasty and nicely balanced. This is a great stout, I expected it to be too sweet, like other lion stouts (Royal Extra), but this was complex and tastey. Good stuff.

Jun 11, 2002 Not very complex aroma. Nice mild and creamy mocha and dark chocolate flavours. Smooth and pleasant finish.

Sep 4, 2004 Bottle. Opaque black, nice tan head. Hearty roasted coffee aroma that nicely follows through into the flavor - this is a good representation of the style. Some cherry flavor in the finish. Well-balanced, good followthrough, nicely done.

Apr 19, 2002 Overall a good stout. It reminded me a lot of my first (and probably most successful) foray into homebrewing. Chewy and very smooth. This is not a dry stout, it was fairly sweet. 8% alcohol was imperceptible. A great beer for the price!

May 24, 2003 pruny, mocha aromas, classic stout appearance, rich and roasted prune-like flavours developing into a bitter chocolate finish. In Sri Lanka this is sometimes laced with the local "arrack", a spirit made from coconuts. Every brewery in Sri Lanka makes a stout, I don't think there are any other countries that can say that.

Feb 23, 2003 Beutiful dark colour. The aroma has hints of smoke, chocolate, coffee. The flavour has hints of caramel, chocolate, coffee, smoke. Full-bodied but still light. Very nice smoothness.

Oct 29, 2002 Very drinkable and very missleading considering its big 8 per cent strength.Liquorice and fruit dominate but the overall taste is complex.It is hard to decide what is the dominant taste but this is truely a great stout.If you dont normally drink stouts please give this one a try-if you do then search this one out, its a winner.
