Commercial Description:
This stout is sheer beer poetry. Let it warm to about 45 F and pour it into a glass to fully experience its rich, roasty flavors and hints of coffee and chocolate. One glass and you'll agree: The Poet is truly a rich, creamy brew of epic proportions.

Courtesy of Bockyhorsey. Sharp aroma I can’t really place, but it smells vaguely of cheese wax. Dark brown to black with a MASSIVE mocha head. Bitter fore with some very mild roastiness and even milder chocolate notes in the middle and finish. Body is thin giving this an almost porter-like feel.

Pours jet black with a thick, creamy beige head. Aroma from roasted malt and toffee, with small hints of peach. Fruity, burnt flavour with some notes of raisin and plum. Great bitter finish. Slight alcoholic.

Bottled
Almost opaque black, not much head. Slightly hoppy aroma with strong milk chocolate presence. Not really strong nose. Chocolaty, medium-bodied, despite of roastiness a bit bland. Roasted aftertaste.

Bottled. Black colour, mediumsized brown head. Wonderful chocolaty, roasted malty aroma with hints of cream (fudge). Chocolate, roasted malt and some soapish hints in flavour. Also some wooden hints in flavour. The flavour is kind of weak link in this one though.

12 oz. bottle. very dark pour with a tan head. the head fades to a slight ring as the beer warms for a few minutes in my glass. aroma hints of coffee, chocolate and some vanilla bean. flavors are pretty much the same, but they just don’t seem to come together in an even or balanced way.

(Bottled@Oliver Twist) Very dark brown color with a small, fading but lacy head. Roasted aroma of creamy milk, coffee and malt. Roasted-malty, ashy and lactic flavor with coffee. Medium-bodied, creamy, ashy, somewhat bitter palate with medium carbonation. Slightly thin body, but not watery. A decent, creamy stout.

Bottled. Black, beige head. Rich chocolate aroma. Medium bodied and very roasty with filling mouthfeel. Dominated by the roasty malt. Lingering salty bitter finish. A concentrated beer, packed with flavour.

Bottle. Poured a opaque dark brown, with a chocolately head. Lacing observed. Nice malty aroma, some chocolate tones. Sweet, malty taste with some coffee and chocolate to it. Decent.
