| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Feb 5, 2009 Darker brown with a big coffee aroma - probably of Southeast Asian or African variety. Flavor is big on the coffee with a hint of earth and chocolate. By far the best Redhook brew I’ve had. ucusty (1921), Wake Forest, North Carolina, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Feb 2, 2009 Surprisingly solid offering.. Viscous black pour with a thick tan head. Coffee, roast, and chocolate on the nose. Thick bodied. Flavor profile very similar to the nose. Very surprised at the hoppy finish. I might actually buy more of this considering its price. dchmela (1473), Orlando, Florida, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Feb 2, 2009 Thick black pour with little head. Great aroma of coffee and chocolate malt. Taste is thick and oily with a big dry coffee, bitter chocolate bite. Solid stout. dkingsella (92), Portland, Oregon, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Feb 1, 2009 Aroma is musty with hints of roasted coffee beans and chocolate. Pours a nice dark black with a fluffy mocha head that didn’t last very long. Nice lacing left on the glass. Flavor is earthy as well, with roasted malts, coffee, caramel and hops. A nice hop finish. Very nice stout. OldMrCrow (1206), Seattle, Washington, USA

Really, really solid. Big rich coffee-stout aroma, really terrific, and a lovely intense roasty flavor that very close to lives up to the aroma. Neither too sweet or too ashy. Definitely a strong stout rather than an imperial stout, and definitely far ahead of my expectations. Nice beer! Petrucci914 (601), Green Bay, Wisconsin, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jan 31, 2009 Thanks bro. Pours a dark black color with a medium mocha head. Aroma is roasted coffee, dark malt, and some sweet chocolate. Taste is bitter chocolate, coffee, and some dark malts. Decent. Juelze (925), Green Bay, Wisconsin, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Jan 31, 2009 Pours a deep black color with medium frothy white head. Aroma is of light semi sweet chocolate, coffee, and roasted malt. Taste is bitter chocolate, stale cold coffee and roasted dark malts. Finishes lighly astringent but otherwise smooth. Not bad. arrogantb (734), Denver, Colorado, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jan 30, 2009 This is the first Redhook beer I have bought in many years, I used to drink the ESB. Dark black, no surprises and no head. It smells very stouty which I know is not an adjective but I’m making it one. Very stouty, roasty, indicative of the flavor which follows and mimics the aroma. The finish is bitter coffee. This is surprisingly better than I expected, good job Redhook.
