| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Aug 24, 2006 Pours an oily black with a thick light brown head. Big delicious aroma of coffee, molasses and plain roast barley. The palate is so full and thick, with plenty of coffee, molasses sweetness, helped along by perfect light carbonation. The roast barley flavour is spot on, slightly raw, but smoothed out by the definite presence of oatmeal. Outstanding. barleyPops (1081), Quad-Cities, Illinois, USA

This shows how a little subtlety can best in your face huge flavors. The black body was topped with a khaki colored head. The aroma was roasted coffee with a bit of chocolate and some brandy. The taste was lots of coffee with a little bit of brandy and some dark chcolate. There was also a nice roasted character in the background.

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 5/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Jun 30, 2006 This bottled brew that came compliments of Jeff Squire poured a dark brown colored foamy head of finely sized mostly lasting bubbles that left behind a fair lacing on top of an opaque dark brown colored body that was ruby red brown around the edges with no visible carbonation. The aroma was vinous with dark brown malts and mild roasted malts in the nose. The mouth feel was mildly tingly at the start and medium in the finish. The flavor was of dark brown malts and mild roasted coffee.
