Sep 1, 2006 Black body, brown head. Boozy berry and tootsie roll aroma with a sweet crystal backing. Sweet chocolate/tootsie roll foundation flavor nicely balanced with roast bitterness/acidity. Tart berry/roast in the finish. A well-made big stout, just not breaking any boundaries here.

Sep 1, 2006 Green Flash tasting @ RFD’s: Pours to a Black-brown colored body with a small sized, dark tan head. The aroma is roasted malt, chocolate, coffee, and a light grain or vegitable (doesn’t smell like DMS problems to me though). Taste is sweet malts, caramel, milk sugar, sweet chocolate, coffee.

Aug 31, 2006 Updated: Sep 4, 2006This one IS Black. Has a average, tan, foamy head. Smells strongly of smoked chocolate and some notes of raisin. Great aroma, anticipation is building so quick, dying for a taste. Ahh, very heavy body. Roasted flavor, chocolate, toffee-like. Great brew.

Aug 22, 2006 bottle. poured black like the angel of death. Big creamy and frothy german chocolate head. Hoppy, sweet chocolate, smoky, coffee, vanilla aroma. A tad sour. Coffee, malty, chocolate. The balance is all off. Coffee in the aftertaste. I think I can see Little Nicki in the remaining head of this beer. This beer just didn’t make it.

Aug 21, 2006 Poured from a 22oz bomber almost but not quite black with a tan head. Aroma remindered me of a cup of coffee with sugar in it. Flavor was a good dark chocolate and coffee.

Aug 15, 2006 A great value for a stout! Pours dark brown, almost black with decent head. The head dicipates pretty quickly. Has great flavor! Tastes of chocolate, coco and some coffee. The beer is a bit thin though. Picture a really nice sout that’s a bit watered down. Nothing bad though, great value at $2.99 a bomber! Definitely worth a try.

Aug 2, 2006 I’ll be first in line to buy the air freshener I can hang from my rear view mirror. It has a wonderful chocolaty aroma, but it seems that the chocolate remains somewhat hidden in the flavor. A burnt coffee and vanilla (yes, I know I just said it smells like chocolate and tastes like vanilla) taste seems to be more at the forefront to me. It then fades into a slightly bitter and watery finish (yeah...bitter and watery probably don’t make sense together either...but I just call ’em like I see ’em...err...taste ’em).

Jul 22, 2006 Thanks to Ungstrup. Dark brown/black with a tan head. The aroma is roast, chocolate, coffee. The flavor is milk chocolate and molases. Medium body, bitter end.
