| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Sep 9, 2006 The darkest beer with the darkest head I’ve ever seen. Smells of coffee and . . . yeast? Dough? Something. Roasted malt and coffee dominates the taste, along with a bit of dark chocolate semi-sweetness. Slightly bitter finish. Not your everyday beer, but it’s nice after a big supper.

| 2.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 7/20 | Aug 31, 2006 Updated: Jan 5, 2007bottle: Poured a dark brown/tan colour with a creamy mocha head. Coffee, caramel, and chocolate dominated the aroma. This beer had lots of flavour, but it was not well balanced or very drinkable. The initial taste is of roasted coffee with chocolate and nutty flavourings. This wasn’t bad, however, the aftertaste was simply horrible. It actually felt like coffee grinds creeping back up my throat and filling my mouth the taste of a cold Irish coffee. It brought back haunting memories of cramming for exams with a pot of coffee and a bottle of Bailey’s liquer. I’m not a fan of this one. Not for me. I was tempted to dump it down the sink but stuck it out. The flavours intensify as it warms which is not a good thing in this case. Furthermore, this damn beer kept me up all night with heartburn. I felt like I ate a bag of espresso beans. Completely f@#ked my golf game the next day! Bastards!
