Oct 20, 2008 Bottle. [Tasting @ Papsoe 20-10-2008] Large creamy beige head that mostly lasted. Good display of lacework. Dark mahogany color. Aroma of roasted malt, coffee, chocolate, mild dry and wood like notes. Over the palate came liquorish. Medium bodied with an average carbonation and light dry texture. Moderated sweet flavor with light counter bitterness. Sweet roasted chocolate finish

Jul 6, 2008 Dark brown pour with small diminishing head. Weak aroma of burnt malt. Flavor mirrors the aroma- some burnt notes with nuttiness. Metal in the finish. Mouthfeel is much thicker than expected though. Apparently, no one can better old Arthur Guinness.

Jul 2, 2008 Bottle. Porus a deep browht with a thin light head. Aroma is light roasted barley and chocoolate nuttiness, but also has a strange off artificial sweetness. Flavor alsohas that sacharin sweetness, with some dry nutty chocolate malts- finishes a bit metallic- with a dry and dusty mouthfeel. I wasnt crazy about this one.

Jun 1, 2008 Out of a bottle, from Trader Joe’s. Poured a beautiful dark, deep brown with a hint of red, nice frothy good sized dark tan head. Strong coffee taste, with a hint of chocolate. Smell reminded me more of chocolate than coffee though. Nice dry finish. Best buy at that price.

May 2, 2008 Bottle. Ruby-black beer with a tan head. Chocolate/roasty aroma. Roasty, nutty, caramel flavor with enough hops to back. Medium bodied. Lingering caramel, roast, light bittering.

Apr 30, 2008 This is a fine looking stout. Inky black with a tan head. I would give full points for appearance if the head were a bit bigger. Smell is fresh roasted coffee and chocolate. Flavor is chocolate with some hops coming through. This is nice and dry, but the flavor is mild and not complex. Medium bodied. It’s a fine beer, but I expect more from a stout.
