Sep 3, 2009 Bomber shared at Scottyp’s housewarming tasting. Pours a very nice black with good light brown head. Nose of nutty roastiness, which follows in the flavor with a very nice bitter chocolate accompanied by some faint smoke. Bittersweet finish. Medium silky body. Good example of style.

Aug 29, 2009 Aroma of dry, roasted malt. Pours a black color with brown highlights. Good flavor of coacoa and roasted malt, it’s quite dry and there’s some bitterness in the end. The body is light with a powdery texture and moderate carbonation. I’m not much a fan of dry stouts, but this one is quite good.

Aug 22, 2009 Pitch black body topped by a 3" thick Bailey’s Irish Cream foam head. Impressive coffee roast aroma, with nice flaked barley fingers. Solid roasty body with medium-mouthfeel. Much more substantial in body and flavor than a Guinness. Outstanding, flavorful, and super quaffable Dry Stout. Pitch-perfect with a simple roastiness and nice coffee complexity and graininess that works.

Jul 11, 2009 (22 oz. bottle via trade with BMan1113VR, thanks Andrew!) Good but probably infected...Cap comes off with a big ppffffftt!! Pours very dark brown with some garnet highlights. Very large tan head rises very quickly and takes a while to settle on each pour. Aroma of chocolate and coffee. Mouthfeel is fairly smooth and lightly oily but has a bothersome fizziness. Flavor of coffee roast and chocolate with a bit of an underlying tingly sourness that may be from infection. Lightly grassy in finish. A fairly rich and tasty stout probably under normal circumstances.
