Sep 23, 2009 Nice attempt from a beer company I do not like. They are however striving for a better beer and I can totally respect that.
Not Bad

Feb 19, 2008 Updated: Mar 17, 2008Had this beer at the Howard Johnsons in the bar thought this was a very good draft. Smelled of choclate not bitter after taste. A very good beer from the tap.

Dec 21, 2007 Sessionable and inoffensive stout that won’t blow anyone’s mind. The waiter at the restaurant told me this was a new dark lager from a microbrewery in St. Louis. Those people are going to hear a few words from me, if I ever go back there. Interestingly, it does taste like a reasonable dark lager. The fact that it’s actually a stout is funny. I’ll do my best to forget the style and the megabrewery and rate it based on my impressions at the time. It was served too cold, which I mention because the kind of places that serve this to you are likely to do the same. Looks fairly nice, though... pours black with a frothy and reasonably lasting tan head. Aroma, even when warm, was a faint, roasty malt. Flavor brings a very light bitterness with roasted coffee notes. Not much aftertaste of which to speak. Thin MF with average carbonation. Goes down extremely easy. A dark, inoffensive quencher from A-B. Not bad, just boring.

Aug 22, 2007 This is a very good draft for it’s type. I enjoyed more than turbo dog which is near identical. Surprisingly goes down good with wings. I agree that A-B label kills it’s ratings but it’s one of their better creations.

Aug 7, 2007 Pours nice brown, foamy, head. Smells of oats, chocalate, and yeast.
Tastes smooth, and, umm, oaty.
If you are looking for a dry stout, like Guiness, keep looking. This isn’t it.
If you like a smooth, oaty, this is a good beer. Funny, but, I’d bet my last dollar ( or Aventinus ), that if these rater did not know it was an AB product, the ratings would be much higher.
