| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Apr 19, 2009 Bottle (500ml). Poured black with a good sized, thick, foamy, tanned head which lasted extremely well. A rich chocolate aroma with toasted malts, cappuccino, leather and plums. Flavor was a mild sour/lactic bitterness with bitter/dark chocolate, black coffee, almond loaf, light woody notes, hints of prune juice and an earthy finish. Light to medium bodied with soft carbonation, a dry mouthfeel, medium texture and a good length finish. A superb session stout - drinks well above its alcohol content.

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jan 18, 2008 Pours an ebony color, ith glints of a burnt brown peeking in around the edges. Aroma is roasted, with the typical and called for coffee and cocoa notes. Some dark fruits do seem to try and come through as well. The flavor is a bit odd, touch of acidity, and tons of coffee, but there is an odd component, herbal perhaps, that is a bit out of sorts. Not bad. Rynoplasty (538), Louisville, Kentucky, USA
