Heavy mouthfeel, good carbonation. Sticky and crisp finish. Burns a little but not bad. Excellent beer. explosivebeer (36), Washington, USA
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Sep 29, 2008 This beer pours a nice clear dark brown. The aroma has caramel and toffee present. It has a good body and great flavor, with lots of malt and a nice, sweet finish. This is definitely one of the better beers you can find in a can. Then again, I guess you can say that for the entire Oskar Blues line. JoeinUccle (902), Brussels, Belgium
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Sep 28, 2008 Nice looking ruddy-brown beer, fading tan head. Nose is caramel malty with some fruit punch and hops thrown in. Starts lightly sweet and fruity before going into a serious bitterness, caramel-malty backdrop. Bittersweet aftertaste. Tasty all-around beer. bb (2905), Martinez, California, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Sep 22, 2008 Can. Blackish beer with red highlights and a nice tan head. Malty, caramel aroma. Malty, caramel, and light fruit flavor. Fuller bodied. Caramel, malt, and light earth lingers. Not bad. demitriustown (693), Shelby Township, Michigan, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Sep 22, 2008 12 oz can: Dark reddish/brown pour with a thick tan head that lingers. Aroma is really rich malt, toffee, caramel, and a bit of dark fruit mixed in the bunch. Taste is rich caramel malt, a bit of smokiness, plums, and a little bit of chocolate. Palate is tongue coating and rich. Overall, It’s a very nice beer out of a can, and even if it came in a bottle I would try this one again and again. Cheers! changeup45 (788), Orlando, Florida, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Sep 20, 2008 Pours a slightly hazy dark brown color with a very thin head that quickly settles down to almost nothing. The aroma consists of lots of chocolate and caramel with some molasses and figs in there as well. Roasted caramel malty flavor with chocolate and some dark fruits. Slightly peppery in the finish. This didn’t drink nearly as thick as I was expecting and actually the mouthfeel was a little thin. Good but not great. crowderm (277), Recklinghausen, Germany
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Sep 18, 2008 Big thanks to my braaaaahhh Hillfiiiire. Pours a very nice near-black with a thin off-white head. Aroma is meaty roasted malts with chocolate. Flavor is pretty nice. Creamy milk chocolate, caramel, and smoke. The smokiness turns a bit stale on the back of the tongue, but otherwise this is a tasty brew. The mouthfeel is a little undercarbonated for my liking, but quite smooth. Solid brew. hillfiiiiire (284), Madison, Wisconsin, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Sep 18, 2008 Beautifully dark body with a diminishing head. Sweetness hits you first in the aroma and is kind of chocolaty like a stout with a kick of caramel and an ever subtle hint of hops. Flavor is like drinking candy with just enough hop to not kill you with the sweetness. Finishes quite nice and smooth.
