Jul 7, 2008 Nitro at brewery(4/24/08)-A dark black body with and aroma of coffee and roasted malt. Flavor of the same on this medium to full bodied brew. Overall pretty bland.

May 10, 2008 Nitro... <b>DLD’08</b>... Pitch black ale with a mid-sized, creamy, white head. Good retention. The subtle aroma extends a thin note of mocha and a touch of vanilla. Hardly medium-bodied with a skim milk mouthfeel and pillow-soft carbonation. The flavor is pretty weak, but there is an insinuation of mocha. Watery, chocolate, Sahara-dry finish.

Apr 14, 2008 Nitro. Pitch black creamy tan nitro head. Dry roast flavor is the same a bitter dark roast finish. Creamy nitro feel. A solid dry irish stout with a hint of sweetness.

Mar 12, 2008 Since I rarely enjoy a nitro-pulled version of an ale, I had the cask conditioned alternative. Nice pour, a dark, dark brown body with a firm, sustained, tightly bubbled head. Good lacing. The aroma had a roasted nuttiness to it along with roasted barley and a splash of coffee. Some chocolate and a soft touch of dark sweet malt were added to the flavor. It finishes on a dry nutty bitter note. Pretty decent.<br /><br /><font size=-4><a href=http://www.ratebeer.com/Places/ShowPlace.asp?PlaceID=2497><u>Rock Bottom Warrenville, Warrenville, IL</u></a><font size=-1><br />
