Jan 13, 2009 From a 12oz bottle this beer pours a jet black with a thin brown head. Has a very strong coffee and chocolate aroma that was very inviting. Nice and creamy mouthfeel with a solid coffee, chocoate, cherry, vanilla and malt taste. Solid beer and very drinkable.

Jan 9, 2009 Dark, dark brown, not quite black, completely opaque with a small head that left a very small film and minimal lacing. Roasted coffee aromas with some sweet malts. Coffee and chocolate dominate the flavor profile, which inlcudes some sweetness. Full bodied, smooth on the palate, and a mildly sweet malt aftertaste.

Dec 18, 2008 Bottle. Moderate malt notes of toasted, dark chocolate and strong coffee, resin for the hops, earth for the yeast and tar in the background. Head is small, fizzy, brown with no lacing and is fully diminishing. Color is black. Flavor is very slightly sweet and lightly acidic to start and moderately bitter in the finish. Palate is medium to full, watery and has a carbonation between soft and lively. it finishes dry. An okay stout, just a little one dimensional in flavor.

Nov 28, 2008 dark black/super dark brown with no light penetration. cream colored head. I could smell this from the pour. Prunes, prunes, prunes and a hint of burnt chocolate espresso/coffee with a huge amount of hop-less goodness! One of the best smells I’ve ever had out of an american stout. You can taste the burnt coffee and well, that’s kind of it. There’s really no huge taste that I expected out of a beer with such a huge nose. Feels pretty good like going down with a carbonated and light thickness oil like liquid. Quiet drinkable but I’m disappointed in the flavor. SHould be bolder based on the nose. Still not a bad pick up. I would like this over many stouts!

Nov 27, 2008 Bottle.Pours black with a nice initial head that fades ta a slight rim. Light roastiness on the nose, as well as some lightly sweet malt and perhaps a touch of dark fruit. The taste is nice, with a balanced creaminess, roastiness, and hints of chocolate and licorice. Smooth and firm mouthfeel with a soft finish.Drinkable but I could only drink 2 at a sitting I think. A very good brew
