Sep 25, 2009 16-oz widget can. Pours a very unappetizing-looking mud puddle brown that steadily turns into an attractive-enough black with a thick, creamy, persistent pale tan mousse. I know the marketing guys worked really hard to make it look like this, but it looks like a crime against the nature of beer. Smells like chalk and cheap fake chocolate. Watery, thinnish, flat body. Chalky, slightly ashy mid-palate with some mild fake chocolate showing. Not a real pleasant beer.

Sep 16, 2009 On tap for $3. looks great, black, substantial foamy head. The smell is quite average, a bit of malt, boring. The taste reminds me of syrupy molasses and is just as unimpressive. I think I like Guinness better but this was still quite easy to drink..
Serving type: on-tap

Sep 12, 2009 500ml can. Looks and smells a lot more robust than it tastes, a little thin. Midnight black in colour with a thick even layer of creamy dense tan foam. Aromas of roasted malt and burnt chocolate come through with a bitter burnt flavour that is quite smooth.

Aug 24, 2009 Updated: Oct 18, 2009Available on tap in much of ireland especially in Munster.Looked well as it was rthich and black with a creamy white head. Bitter nad roasted but was a bit lighter than most stouts. But as a stout it still isn’t exactly what you’d call a light beer.

Aug 18, 2009 On tap at Pub Nord Ouest, 3-riv. Pours black with a medium creamy head. Aroma is very discrete. Taste has some vague hints of roasted malt, raisins and fruits. Almost did not feel like a stout. Nice mouthfeel though !!!
