| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Sep 18, 2006 Pours a nice black with thin off-white head, good amount of lacing. Aroma of anise and burned malt. A bit of coffee too. Taste is dry and of sweet coffee. Nice creamy mouthfeel. Bitter dry finish. Decent beer. biznizness (948), Mooresville, North Carolina, USA
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Sep 7, 2006 Could have sworn I got a big whiff of licorice when I first smelled this brew. I have a cold though, so probably not. Not impressive though... sort of like every album the Dave Matthews Band has put out in the past 5 years. TerryR (383), Oswego, Illinois, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Sep 5, 2006 Black with a tan head. Roasted malt aroma. Rosasted malt, coffee and chocolate flavors. Effervescent with a fairly light, creamy body. Lingering smooth finish. MrBeer (276), Erie, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Sep 4, 2006 I picked up a sampler pack and this stout might be the best out of the four in there. It has a nice sweet smooth taste to it. Casteel420 (59), Bristol, Virginia, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Aug 23, 2006 Very dark, stout beer. A favorite domestic stout. Aroma of roasted nuts and chocolate-coffee and a similar taste with a nice strong bittersweet aftertaste. dwyerpg (2545), Las Vegas, Nevada, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Aug 16, 2006 Only a little hops in the head, not much else. Not too much aroma. Great dark appearance. The taste on this really isn’t that heavy, probably similar to Guinness. A liittle chocolate and coffee, but a little weak in the finish. Zinister (1207), Houston, Texas, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Aug 14, 2006 Brownish-black, dark as night. Pleasant thin, tan head. Aroma is toffee, molasses, and some chocolate. Thinner body than I expected, but nice carbonation and wonderful flavors. Vanilla, cola and coffee with a nice burnt finish. bitbucket (2034), Kirkland, Washington, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Aug 13, 2006 Bottled. Pours an opaque blackish brown with a rocky, lacy, light brown head. Aroma is predominantly chocolate, with some cookie dough and a touch of coffee. Creamy full body with light carbonation. The taste is smooth with coffee, vanilla, with a dry coffee and burnt toast finish. A good interpretation of the dry stout style.
