| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jun 12, 2006 Dark deep brown to black with some red edges, nice tan head. Lacing was the weakest part of the appearance. Flavor was coffee, some chocolate, roasted tones (and oats), some light fruits in the background. The mouthfeel was pretty drinkable, moderate for a stout, but in a nice way. Reminded me a bit of St. Ambroise Oatmeal. Dhrjericho (66), Boise, Idaho, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | May 6, 2006 Pours a heavy black. Aroma is buttery nut stout. The flavor is actually a nice subtile stout. It has a nutty malt flavor and is very drinkable. ABUSEDGOAT (1934), California, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | May 1, 2006 Usual black body with a rich tan head. Usual aroma of roast, chocolate and coffee. Also some licorice here. Very low hops. By the numbers and solid, but not at all interesting. gatorbeer (148), Ft. Lauderdale, Florida, USA
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Apr 8, 2006 Very good. Dark flavorful but not too bitter or overpoering. A nice balnce of flavors. ElJefe (553), Rochester, New York, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Mar 26, 2006 Black with a small brown head. Chocolate and caramel in the aroma. Coffee, caramel, and cocoa in the flavor, along with a tartness in the finish that didn’t quite fit in all that well with the flavor. mephisto (1144), Taiwan
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Mar 1, 2006 jet black with a small brown head. chocolatey aroma with a hint chewing gum. smooth and creamy with nice mouthfeel, solid stout. mkgrenwel (420), Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Feb 8, 2006 Dry. Mostly malty, but with little sweetness. Dominantly roasty coffee/chocolate flavors. Maybe a bit of herbal hops. Moderate carbonation with a light, wet palate. Some of that porter flavor that I ususally call peanut butter, but itsn’t quite that. Bitterness makes an appearance in the back with the roasted coffee/chocolate. Lighter bodied than it should be, but other than that a nice, tasty beer. Not sure why it’s not called a dry stout, though.

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 2/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jan 4, 2006 The bottle poured a thick, virtually black beverage with a small fizzy tan head. The head was mostly diminishing and left no lacing on the glass. The aroma was mostly malty, dominated by molasses with notes of chocolate, coffee and dried plum. This one has a very full body with light carbonation and a thick, creamy texture. The flavor started off moderately sweet with a slight earthy nose. The medium-long finish was lightly sweet with a light alcoholic warmth.
