| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Apr 3, 2008 Pours jet oily black, with a small, swirly light brown head. Very syrupy sweet nose, alot of caramel, chocolate, licorice, light coffee, and dark malt are all abundant and sharp. The flavor is bigger on the roast then I got in the nose, tons of bitter dark chocolate, caramel malt, and subtle hops in the finish. Really enjoyed the balance and its full flavoredbody. Pretty kick ass stout. Soonah (925), Tulsa, Oklahoma, USA

The pour was super dark brown and nearly viscous. A small dark tan, light brown head popped up briefly. A very nice looking beer. The aroma was roast malt, coffee and thin chocolate. Faint hops noticed as the beer opened up. The flavor was a nice blend of smoke, roasted malt, coffee and chocolate. Better than average mouthfeel. A very well built, very nice stout.

| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Mar 11, 2008 bottle from trade with 5000. Good aroma, bitter. Baking chocolate, anise/licourice, little smoky, vineous. Brownish black color, 1st pour had a small head with minor lace. 2 pour I dumped alittle more and got a better head, still minor lace. Bitter flavor. largely the vine coming through, maybe even a steely bitterness. Medium body, creamy smooth mouthfeel, bitter finish. Likeable stout. though it’s bitterness made the flavor very one sided, not alot to lock onto. gator2683 (137), Anchorage, Alaska, USA

The aroma is really smoky, also some roasted malt and fruits. The taste is mostly dominated by a bitter/sweet mix, with the sweet brown sugar and malt dominating. There is also a strong smoke and fruity aspect. Really nice.
