May 7, 2006 (nitro) Creamy, lingering beige head atop an opaque black body. Aroma is roast, coffee, light smoke. Taste is medium sweet, roast, coffee. Creamy light-medium body. Not a bad beer by any stretch, but nothing noteworthy either.

Oct 10, 2009 Updated: Oct 11, 2009On tap at KSBF ’09. Poured a deeper brown color with a small sized off white head. Aromas of chocolate, lighter roastiness, and oatmeal. Tastes of the same chocolate, roastiness, and oatmeal. A tad on the thinner side (but somewhat expected for the ABV - and it is a ’breakfast’ stout!).

Oct 4, 2009 On nitro tap at the brewpub on 9/9/09: Pours an opaque black with some creamy dense nitro beige head. Aroma of lightly sweet dark caramel and chocolate notes with a touch of dark fruits. Starts with good fullness and an earthy dark malty sweetness with good roasty bittersweet balance before a smooth creamy finish. A nice stout.

Jul 25, 2007 Black with a tan/grey head. 100% foam on the pour - had to wait for the barkeep to combine two glasses. Mellow, nut-roast aroma. Head is like tan wall patch plaster. Coffee, nuts, dry, smooth. Foam is a bit metallic. Medium finish with a roasty character. Medium body. Very drinkable, very good.

Feb 2, 2009 On tap, @ Wharf Rat. Pours a very dark brown, almost black, body with a creamy one finger nitro brown head. Pretty roasty and chocolaty with a good amount of oats coming out. A little bit of licorice as well. The flavor has lots of oats too, quite smooth with a nice roastiness and a slight sweetness up front. The finish has just a hint of bitterness. Pretty smooth mouthfeel, but there’s a bit of fizzy carbonation there that makes me thing there’s a bit more CO2 in the mix than usual. Nice lingering finish. Decent, but probably hurt a bit by the nitro.
