Pours black with a small brown head. The aroma is magnificent: coffee, roasted malt, and a sweetness from raisins or brown sugar. The taste is strong but well balanced. It has a creamy mouthfeel and a bitter finish.

Dec 21, 2009 Bottle. Black with beautiful chocolate brown head that will not go away. The aroma is truly wonderful - lots of sweet roasted chocolate, strong coffee, rich caramel and oatmeal. Taste is initially sweet though is quickly replaced with a mild bitterness of burnt chocolate. Palate has lots of carbonation (somewhat unexpected) and overall is smooth. This just may be the perfect stout... its hard to imagine anything else as satisfying or as beautifully crafted.

Dec 19, 2009 Aroma of dark roasted wood and coffee. Appearance is jet black with a dark tan head. Tastes like bitter chocolate, coffee, and the dust from a chocolate malt grinding session. Smooth and rich with a very nice mouthfeel. Certainly well crafted!

Dec 17, 2009 Pours espresso black with a thin tan halo of head.
Nose is heavy on coffee, not too acidic on the nose, fairly roasty.
Taste is thinner than the beer geek brunch, less chewy, less obvious oat character, slight hop bitterness, slight acidic coffee bitterness, flavors arent as rich as expected, but none over shadow the others. nice coffee, roasted malt, oat, and floral hop flavors all play quite well together.

Dec 16, 2009 Bottle. Heavy malt notes of dark bread, dark chocolate and strong coffee, moderate resin for the hops, light leather for the yeast, with background notes of raisin, charcoal, toffee and alcohol. Head is average size, creamy/frothy, light brown with fair lacing and is mostly diminishing. Color is black. Flavor starts moderately to heavily sweet and lightly acidic, then finishes lightly sweet and acidic, moderately bitter and a touch salty. Palate is medium to full, creamy with a soft carbonation and a lightly astringent and dry finish. This has to be the fullest and richest Stout I’ve had to date. Excellent in every respect.

Dec 11, 2009 Bottle shared with portableparty tonight. Dark black pour, little carbonation and a solid bitter coffee and chocolate aroma. Flavor was also vanilla, coffee and very dry bitter chocolate and some hops on the finish. Definitely a great beer, but I really liked BGB Weasel much more.
