| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Dec 13, 2008 12oz bottle. Pours black with a heavy brown head. Decent carbonation. Aroma is of roasted malt, chocolate, syrup, and hops. Taste is spicy hops, with a heavy roasted malt backbone. Notes of chocolate, dark fruits, syrup, and alcohol. Very dry finish, with a nice hop bitterness. The body is very light, with a very dry and light mouthfeel. This beer may seem light in mouthfeel, but its far from bad. Its exceptionally drinkable. This is one stout I could consider a session beer. I could easily knock these back all day. Has everything a good stout needs, but isnt a sipper. luttonm (276), Belgrade, Serbia

| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 16/20 | Dec 7, 2008 0.355 l bottle. Black color with creamy long lasting head. Sweet and roasty aroma with salty licorice, coffee, chocolate, leather and flowery hops. Bittersweet and roasty flavor with bitter chocolate, charcoal, salty licorice, wood and lemony-flowery-mentholy hops. Soft oily palate. Very tasty and the house character of North Coast comes nicely through. However, I think this woud be even better with less hop aroma and flavor. scoth (274), Fort Collins, Colorado, USA
