| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | May 16, 2009 On tap @ the brewery. Dark roasted grain aroma with chocolate and caramel notes. Dark brown almost black with a medium long lasting light brown head. The flavor is sweet with a bitterness derived from the chocolate, you also get just a tiny sour flavor from the yeast. Smooth mouth feel from this medium bodied beer, a bit watery. This is a solid stout the chocolate adds a richness and a nice mild bitterness. travita (1927), Frisco, Texas, USA
