| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 2/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jul 9, 2004 Reddish brown, opaque, minimal head formation. Mostly grainy, roasted aroma, some sweetness (lactose?). Balanced sweet and roasty, charred palate. It definitely seems like there’s a little sugar added in. Slightly sour in the finish and roasty touches in the aftertaste. MMM...Beer (385), Las Vegas, Nevada, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 13/20 | Jun 30, 2004 Starts of as a "not bad" and ends as a "decent to good" (i.e. if you don’t like it on the first sip, keep drinking). Nice opaque color with hints of coffee and roasted malts on the nose. Palate is a little too light/watery, but there are some nice flavors of chocolate. Also, fnishes with a nice clean sheet of lace (almost attractive in a stout). Drew (2409), Kent, Ohio, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Jun 18, 2004 Dark brown, poured very quietly; not a lot of carbonation here. Roasted malts, a moderate amount of sourness until a light hop presence helps to dry out the finish (Thanks Rick!) bu11zeye (5530), Frisco, Texas, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jun 14, 2004 (Draught) Pours a black color with an average-sized tan head. Watery palate for a stout. Flavors of coffee, toffee, and roasted malt. bitter (1137), Henderson, Nevada, USA
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Jun 9, 2004 bottled: this one had a weird nose that i couldnt quite pinpoint over the normal coffee notes, something buttery coconut, like baileys. the mouth is flat and needs a little more carbonation. with the nose you expect a big choc malt taste, but its quite thin and uninteresting.

| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | May 31, 2004 Draft - Dark brown/black with a thin tan head. Roasted malt, almost smoky, aroma. Slightly sour. Not a very good attempt at a stout. Give me Guinness... Aurelius (2652), Tallahassee, Florida, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 12/20 | Mar 12, 2004 Mildly smoky aroma. Guiness knockoff. Thinnish. Twangy. Not much to say here. HopsOrDie (687), New Lenox, Illinois, USA
| 2.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 3/10 | 4/5 | 8/20 | Feb 13, 2004 Bottle. Dark in color. Roasted aroma. Flavor is overwhelming in lactic acid. I couldn't get past this taste and had a hard time finishing the bottle.
