Very dark brown. Chocolatey, coffeeish nose. Thick, rich flavour with a fudgey accent. Decent stout, not terribly foreign, maybe just American.

Jul 4, 2008 Thanks to miketd for the bomber. Pours dark brown with a large head. Good lace. Aroma of chocolate, dusty yeast and coffee. Very dry taste. Medium to light body, you might even say it was crisp.

Jul 1, 2008 22 oz bottle, via FlacoAlto. Pours a black body with a one finger fizzy brown head that faded to a clingy ring. The nose is roasty with lots of cocoa powder and sugars. Coffee, charred malt, and a bit of chalk. Heavy roast and coffee grounds with a good bit of sweet lactose sugar up front. Finishes to a slightly bitter and burnt malt lingering finish. The body is thick and almost chewy with a very mouth coating clingy finish. Moderate fizzy carbonation. Pretty good overall, but it kind of tired my palate out after the first half of the bottle.

Jun 27, 2008 At Oggi’s in Del Mar. Decent, middle of the road stout. Smooth, malty, nutty - easily drinkable. Mild enough to be a good cross-over beer.
