| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Nov 23, 2007 Bottled. A pitch black beer with a brown head. The aroma is sweet malty with notes of chocolate and strong notes of roasted malt. The flavor is sweet with notes of roasted malt, sweet drops, hops, and grapefruit, leading to a dry roasted finish. biz82 (1328), austin, Texas, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 14/20 | Nov 21, 2007 Pours an oily black with a thin brown head. Aroma of chocolate and flowers. Sweet and acrid with burnt chocolate flavor. Big soft body but a relatively dry finish. Lingering bitter oiliness. Good stuff. Tejas (696), Dallas, Texas, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | Nov 2, 2007 Good stout. Dry but OK. Good roastiness and good bitterness & sometimes that’s enough. Don’t necessarily need to find chocolate and fruit and other crap. Tranquillity (1165), Espoo, Finland
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Nov 1, 2007 Bottled and shared with FatPhil. Very dense, brown head. Aroma of our own chocolate mud cake (which is fantastic). A bit papery though. Surprise! It doesn’t taste chocolate! It’s rather burnt with earthy, milky flavours. Long finish.

Very black, dark thick bready head. Oily burnt aroma. Milky and very burnt taste. Pleasant in the mouth, but a bit drying after swallowing. Quite well balanced for a very burnt stout. xmarcnolanx (792), Kirkwood, Missouri, USA

Aroma is chocolate goodness. Taste is sweet fruit, chocolate, citrus hop bitterness. Complex and very solid. JohnnyJ (1309), Carlsbad, California, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Oct 17, 2007 Pour is a dark, dark brown with nice dark tan head. This one is full of bittersweet chocolate and coffee. Slightly roasty with hints of fruit and hops. It has the silky mouthfeel of an oatmeal stout. Tasty. WisconsinBeer (521), St Paul, Minnesota, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Oct 14, 2007 Bomber bottle. Dry toasted malts. Hints of smoke in the background. Nice medium body. After letting it linger on the palate a bit of dry hop pops out. A bit of coffee flavor in here, but not cloying. Just a solid stout that doesn’t try to do too much, and remains well balanced.
