| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Apr 11, 2007 This was from a 22oz bottle purchased in Ashland, Oregon. It poured a deep black color, and left a nice tan head. Lacing was chunky and attractive in the glass. The nose was sweet molasses, roasted coffee, dark chocolate, nice roast malts, and citrus hops. Mouthfeel was thick and oily, and very smooth. Flavor is the molasses, coffee, chocolate, malts, hops and some sweet fruits kicking in. and some dark fruits. Finish was long and enjoyable with just enough piney hops to go with the coffee at the end. Wonderful brew. Hoss (602), Florida, USA

Light aroma of coffee and roasty malts.
Flavor of tobacco, burnt wood and roasty malts with a medium heavy body and rich mouthfeel. Zimmo (57), Siloam Springs, Arkansas, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Feb 17, 2007 Pours black with tan thin head and all the way to the bottom of the glass lacing. When I loved stouts, I would have loved this. Dark, rich coffee and smoke aromas and flavors. Feels like more alcohol than it is. Burnt, caramalized aftertaste. Alas, I no longer care for stouts, thus the rating.
