Dec 27, 2004 Updated: Dec 28, 2004A descent stout with few surprises. Caramel, malty, roasted, chocolate and coffee-like, it’s what you’d expect a stout to be from a microbrewery/restaurant, but was well worth my time. Full taste and dry, it leaves a good aftertaste in a fashion like the more famous Irish stouts. A good imitation of them if nothing more.

Nov 4, 2004 Draught: Dark black, small brown head that quickly fades. Notes of coffee & toasted grains. Somewhat malty and bitter with weak coffee flavors, some roasted malt not in the aroma, medium bodied. Just seemed a little bit watery to me. Not bad, not amazing.

Jul 15, 2004 Updated: Jun 18, 2005Served on nitro tap. Dark black body, nitroish tan head. Toasty grain plus coffee aroma. Light flavor - weak roasted coffee, no chocolate to speak of. A very average dry stout. (Sampled at the Milwaukee Rock Bottom). Update: Had this along with their triple-chocolate-whatever cheescake and it didn’t stand a chance! Speaks to the thin/bitter quality of this stout.

Jul 5, 2004 Sample in Milwaukee. Black, nitro-creme head. Sweet succanat-strawberry-chocolate nose, hint of the medicinal. Alas, nitro completely kills the flavor, really bland, dry and mildly hoppy end. Disappointing after the nice nose.

Jun 29, 2004 (Nitro draft: Rock Bottom in Campbell, CA) [NOTE: In San Jose, Stillwater Stout in an oatmeal stout, not an Irish stout] The nose is lighter than expected, with dark roasted and oatmeal aromas, but neither are all that abundant; The moderately bitter flavor features a much more prominent dark roasted maltiness than the nose indicates, and a fairly strong oatmeal component; The palate is medium bodied, perhaps a little thin for the style, but has a somewhat creamy and smooth mouthfeel; Black in color, even at the edges; Creamy, dark tan head has excellent retention and coats the glass with lacing
