Feb 7, 2006 (Bottle) Purchased at Beers of the World in Rochester, NY. Pours a large tan head with an opaque body. Nose is very molasses with undertones of coffee. Very roasty malt flavour with a coffee finish. Some bitter chocolate. Good but I still prefer Boreal or St. Ambroise...

Feb 4, 2006 Poured so dark it looked like used motor oil. I couldn’t even see through it when holding it up to the light. Aroma is slightly off from other descriptions...kind of malty-medicine with a slight hint of alcohol. Small chocolate colored head. Disapeared quickly with no lacing. Slight sweet start. The flavors seem to bouce on the tongue like the cabonation is causing it and then it has a definite roast flavor finish. I get non of the alcohol flavor in the taste that I get in the smell.

Feb 3, 2006 The aroma has quite a bit of chocolate, coffee, and toasted malt. The appearance is almost black with a small but foamy head. The flavor is sweet and moderately bitter with all the elements from the aroma. The palate is thick enough to make it smooth and enjoyable. A nice stout.

Feb 3, 2006 Inky black, thick creamy tan head. Nice nose of milk chocolate, cocoa, roasted vanilla bean, and toast, with faint hints of coffee and citrus. Dusty cocoa and roasty vanilla flavors are softly upheld by a nice back end bitterness. Light to medium bodied, soft carbonation, dry, bittersweet finish. A nice session stout....

Jan 25, 2006 Chocolately coffee aroma, as expected, but something else too, something acidic or fruity. Pitch black, with a tan foamy head that lasts. Creamy, bitter, dark chocolate, a little milk. I gotta admit I wasn’t expecting so much from this beer.
