Jun 17, 2008 12 oz bottle. Pours a deep brown/black color with a mocha head that has excellent lacing and a slightly unimpressive retention. Very in your face nose that is overwhelmed by burnt coffee notes and is backed by a subtle bit of chocolate. Wow...the body comes to mind first. A little thinner than I would have expected, not as "slow" as expected. Flavor is almost like chewing on a burnt coffee bean with some vanilla cream flavor thrown in just for fun. Nice stout that I can just sit and sip on for a while.

Jun 17, 2008 Bottle courtesy of buckybeer. Thanks!
Pours almost black with ruby highlights and a medium lived light tan head. Smell is roasty malt, light coffee, and some cream. Taste is roasty and just shy of burnt with a light creamy milkiness. Simple, but well made, tasty and very drinkable.

May 31, 2008 Excellent stout. Beautiful chocolate brown pour and a tan head. Aroma is of roasted malt and faint coffee. Dances on the palate - roasted flavors, stronger coffee than on the nose and some malty sweetness to really balance it off. Excellent. Absolutely delicious. Wish I could get it on a regular basis in MA.

May 23, 2008 Bottle. Pours a dark brown body with no real color hues. Aroma is chocolate malt, sweet malt, and some major roastyness. Flavor is creamy sweet dry chocolate malt leading to a bitter dry oat finish, that almost seems a bit acidic. okay.

May 22, 2008 Nice stout. I’m drinking it at the wrong time of year, but it’s stil pretty impressive. Pours a coca-cola color with a nice brown head. Fairly high carbonation. Aroma is a lot of roasted malt and chocolate. The flavoor is very nice. Smooth on the front end with a lot of that stout bitterness on the back. Easy drinker. Good beer.
