A great dark black beer that pours like molasses and taste like honey. This had a great flavor and was so yummy to drink. I really enjoyed this brew. It is very hard to find a good Stout brewed with the right stuff. Good malts and lots of good character. I will drink this again for sure. 11026 (1772), Alabama, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Feb 18, 2006 Nitro tap. Black colored with just a hint of ruby at teh edges. Dense light brown nitro creamy head that fades slowly to a ring. Fair lacing. Modest chocolate aroma wtih slight bits of coffee. Medium bodied. Barest hints of bitterness to balance. Pretty well done, decent flavor and aroma for a nitro poured beer. A bit thin in the end, perhaps some lactic sourness? harlequinn (2745), Tacoma, Washington, USA
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Jan 3, 2006 This is another beer that has theability to be so much more. The finish absolutely killed it for me, it was great right up until the finish, and then it just falls off, with no lingering aftertaste except for a bit of dry mouth from the roastiness.

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Feb 5, 2004 Nitro: Creamy tan head. Dark black, ruby edges. The aroma is mildly roasted with some berry notes along with some light milk chocolate. The flavor has a perfect balance of roasted malts to the touch of crisp hops. Finishes watery & boring though, too bad. microdyke (360), Portland, Oregon, USA
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 2/10 | 5/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Aug 29, 2003 A deep black with a tan creamy head. Very undistinguishable aroma but, the flavor is smokey with some roasted malts. Murphy (1759), Fort Collins, Colorado, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Aug 6, 2003 I swear this was a dry stout, but the bartenter said no. Very smooth milkiness that surprisingly lacks a great malt backbone. Tons of coffee in the taste. Finishes dry and simple. Interesting stout, although I couldn't stand to drink a lot of it. ¾ (5009), Boulder, Colorado, USA

Tastes of strong coffee, but unfortunately it feels far too gritty, like coffee grains. And at the bottom of my glass there in fact were small black grounds of *something*.

| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Sep 4, 2002 It was a lovely black color, with a slight reddish-brown along the edges of the glass where the light penetrated. Creamy tan head from the nitro-tap. Very light malt aroma, and it went downhill from there for me. I found this to be rather bland, only a slight roasty taste, mildly coffee-like. It just seemed a little thin to me for the stout style. However, the light ABV and mild flavors make this vary drinkable, and it would make a good introduction to the non-stout drinker.
