pijiuduzi (8), Beijing, China does not count May 3, 2008 I really enjoyed the oak flavor, mainly because i like to eat oak trees. No, seriously the palate was 非常好喝 and i really enjoyed the coffee like aftertaste. PWalk (337), Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA May 3, 2008 Easily one of the best beers I’ve had in the last year or more. Really great aroma. Flavor has more oak in it which I liked. I spent $14 for the bottle and while I think that is high it was worth it this night. PrinceDarren (1), USA does not count May 3, 2008 22oz. bottle poured in a Duvel glass. Very dark in color with an oaky aroma. Silky smooth on the tongue. Coffee-like aftertaste. Magjayran (1379), Durham, North Carolina, USA Apr 30, 2008 Pours a dark brown color with a very thin head. Mostly just film. Some bourbon in the aroma but it really just sits on top of what is essentially a strong porter with loads of roasty malt. All I get from the flavor are generic strong porter notes with just enough bourbon and oak to make this beer stand out a step from the crowd. Perfectly adequate. Nucci (21), cullowheee, North Carolina, USA Apr 27, 2008 Pours dark black body with no head. Smells and taste delicious, reminds me of the forest. Dangle (31), Cullowhee, North Carolina, USA Apr 27, 2008 Dark Chocolate color. Smells like bread. Tastes like tastes like oak and chocolate.
I like it, makes me feels warm inside. dmac (1418), Toms River, New Jersey, USA Apr 27, 2008 22 oz bomber shared with the Fight Night Drinking Crew supplied by broncoman, thanks Darin. Pours deep brown/black with a small off white head. Very slight aroma, only slight notes of roastiness and perhaps a touch of vanilla. Medium bodied with average carbonation that is smooth and highly drinable. Flavor is stronger then the aroma with notes of oak, roastiness, vanilla and a touch of charcoal. This beer is dark and smooth much like the guy who supplied it. TheRealBastard (141), The-No, California, USA Apr 22, 2008 Pours black with off-white head. Nose is roasted malt and coffee. The flavor is almost all coffee. There is some smoke and some chocolate coming through as well. This beer was decent, but nothing to get excited about. I’d recommend this.
