Nov 29, 2009 pours out thin but a little heavy with the color of really dark brown. it produced a head that was about a finger thick and a really dark beige or mocha colored head. the body is pretty dark with no light penetration that i can see. the aromas are chocolatley, sweet, burnt malts, dark ripe fruits, some hints of hops(but really faint). there is also some good coffee, caramel, and toffee. it produces some nice lacing and the head settled to a very thin beige cap. it is all most full bodied with a really crisp hop finish and a very silky feel across the mouth. i taste slight hop bitterness, milk chocolate, roasted malts and carmelized sugar. there is some slight nutmeg, chives, and a burnt wood kind of taste. it finishes with some of that burnt taste on my tongue and that is really the most i get in the aftertaste. but there is also some bitterness, and a little malty undertones in the finish.

Nov 23, 2009 Nearly pitch black body with a very thin tan head. Light aroma with notes of coffee, licorice, and dark fruits. The palate is quite thin for a stout, but the brew is very smooth. Weak coffee flavor with some dark fruit accents. Finishes just slightly bitter. Not a bad beer, but somewhat weak for a stout.

Nov 20, 2009 Pours very black with a tan head that diminshes immediately and leaves little lace, if any, behind. The aroma contains the the typical chocolate, coffee, licorice, and dark fruits like dates really coming through in the nose. Rather light/thin bodied. Tastes mostly of roasted coffee. Some chocolate as well and it finishes with a light hop kick. Fairly decent, nothing stellar, but a decent stout nonetheless.

Nov 18, 2009 Poured dark brown with a decent off-white head and flecks of lacing. The aroma was chalky, roasted malt and weak chocolate. The flavor was again more chalk and roasted malts. Thin chocolate. A bit of light spice/hops as it warmed up. Thin and drinkable. Not bad, just not outstanding in any way.

Nov 14, 2009 10th June 2008. Very smooth stout - more like a porter to me. Very lightly toasted malt and quite light on the palate. Not much else going for it.

Nov 11, 2009 A black beer with a small tan head. The aroma is roasty as is the taste with some chocolate showing up. Not a bad stout at all.
