Jul 27, 2009 I usually notice over sweetness right away. This beer tasted wonderful as a sample, but seemed to become progressively sweeter, and after nearing the end of a full pint I wished I had ordered something else. Smooth and good flavored, just too sweet.

Jun 25, 2009 Had this on tap at the Ice Axe Grill at Government Camp, OR. Colour... black with a thin off-white head. Nose... roasted malt, molasses, Nescafe, and light hops. Palate... malty, creamy, gently hops and light unsulphured molasses. I regularly enjoy this on cask at the Horse Brass in Portland, OR but it was nice to try at "the source".

Jun 8, 2009 Thick beer, large body, super dark and pours a decent head. Definetly sweeter than most, but almost to a fault. Halfway between strong chocolate, molasses, and oatmeal notes, and not at all hoppy.

Jan 11, 2009 On tap at the brewery on nitro. Black pour with a very smooth khaki head. Very smooth palate due to the nitro tap, soft roastiness comes through, but a bit more muted on nitro. Soft chocolate notes up front, coffee builds in the dry finish. One of the best beers on the sampler plate. Hopefully I can try this again on CO2.
