Nov 28, 2007 Can. Dark brown to blackish in color, pours like you would expect with a frothy/foamy light head. Aroma is suble chocolate. Smooth flavor with hints of chocolate and toasted malt. Overall a solid stout with subtle flavors, nothing over the top

Nov 27, 2007 Pour is like you would expect from a good stout, heady and stout. Not as sweet as the aroma leads you to believe. A very nice stout, no wonder its made it around the world.

Nov 25, 2007 I really couldn’t taste the difference between this and Guinness; the differences are too subtle, aside from the availability.

Nov 23, 2007 From 500ml can - pours with a beautiful cascading nitro head. Very dark brown with a pillowy tan head. The aroma has dark chocolate, roasted malt, coffee bitterness and dark fruit. Medium smooth body with very gentle carbonation. The flavor starts a bit creamy with some roasted malt, vanilla and sour milk chocolate. The finish is smooth and sour with some woody hops. Overall a pretty good stout.

Nov 21, 2007 500ml can - pours deep brown with a thick beige nitro head. Looks like Guinness. Aroma is slightly sweeter than Guinness draught, with toffee and malt. Flavour is sweet, mildly roasted malt, toffee, some coffee and cereal. Very similar to Guinness draught in many ways, but with slightly bigger body and a more pronounced sweetness. Very drinkable, but like Guinness again, nothing much special.

Nov 20, 2007 Pours dark black with a creamy brown head. Weak coffee aroma and flavor. Slightly more coffee than the often compared Guinness, which isn’t really too much.

Nov 20, 2007 Draught. A clear black beer with a nice creamy nitrogen brown head. Weak aroma of roasted malt and coffee. Roasty flavours, with again coffee, but the beer doesn’t seem in great conditions. Light body. low carbonation, some sourness and short finish. Not bad, but I hope to rerate this when I’ll try it in better conditions.
