Jan 13, 2008 Bottle at stevo’s. Pours ruby black with tan head. The aroma is espresso with a touch of raspberry and dark chocolate. The flavor is surprisingly dry, with charcoal and fireplace smoke mixed with those other typical stout tastes. Pretty good stuff.

Jan 13, 2008 Stevofest, courtesy of Illinismitty. Black, with a thin brown head. Aroma is coffee, wth a fruity notes - maybe like aBalsamic reduction (I completely stole that line from Illinsmitty...). Much drier flavor than I expected - Very smoky and clean, but also very dry. Very tasty and enjoyable. I could drink a lot of this...

Jan 13, 2008 Sampled at Stevofest 08, courtesy of me. Aroma of dark roast, cocoa powder, and balsamic reduction. Pours black with a pale brown frothy head. Medium bodied with a soft texture. Flavor of dark roasted malts, coffee, with some sublte accents of smoke and chocolate. Finish is dry and ashy. Very well done and perhaps one of the best foreign stouts I have had.

Nov 7, 2007 Bottle: Poured a delicious looking black with a modest tan head. Wonderful appearance. Aroma of roasty tones with coffee and a little bittersweet cocoa. Flavor is similar; lots of roasty notes and coffee. Just a slight hint of mocha and bitters in the tail. The flavor gave me more of the feel of a dry stout... still tasty though. Thanks BuckeyeBoy.
