| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Aug 26, 2008 I think this is a great beer, both on tap and out of the bottle. Pours a dark black with a huge tan head. Oatmeal and bitter chocolate dominate the nose, with a slight hint of coffee. Flavor is chocoffee with a bitter finish. A little light for a stout, but the flavor is excellent. If this were a little heartier, it would rank 4.6-4.8. tunit0395 (3), Gulfport, USA does not count | 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Aug 25, 2008 Absolutley love it! This beer is the one that steeredme away from the american lager. amazing bold taste with a cream aftertaste. one of my favorites Sparky27 (1608), Phoenix, Arizona, USA
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | Aug 25, 2008 Bomber. An aggressive pours results dark mahogany black with a 3 finer tan head. Decent lacing. Nose is oatmeal, milk chocolate and light roasted coffee. Taste is roasted malt, light chocolate and black coffee with a hoppy finish that lingers. Lighter mouth feel than I expected. Would be really good with more body. jbuzz (661), South Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA

| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 2/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 12/20 | Aug 17, 2008 22 oz bottle. Pours deep brown with a full creamy tan head and large bead. Aroma is carmelled malts and very solid and robust sweetness. Flavour is smooth and sweet, full bodied: like creamy, sweet coffee. Had an excessively carbonated mouth feel. Hopping is light. dchmela (1458), Orlando, Florida, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Aug 16, 2008 Bomber. Pours a blackish red with a huge tan head. Chocolate and coffee dominate the aroma, but I also caught little hints of citrus hops in there, too. Chocolate malt, coffee, bitter hop in the taste. Slightly thin body which makes this an easy drinking stout. Hints of chocolate and coffee in the aftertaste. buzzoven (333), Japan
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 12/20 | Aug 15, 2008 On tap @ Rogue pub, Portland Airport. I have had this in a bottle a few times in the past, but this pint on tap was surely the tops. A malty, smooth, chocolaty creamy experience. Hints of nutmeg and coffee. Extremely drinker friendly. joebudzjoe (232), Connecticut, USA
| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 17/20 | Aug 12, 2008 22 oz bottle. From the bottle a marshmellow and dark chocolate aroma steams out as a fizzy, tall but thin root beer float brown head cradles the black body. The strong carbonation forms the wet palate. The taste sensation wans like a wave drying sand. Dry dark chocolate aftertaste. Would like a bit more smoothness that the carbonation takes away, I bet it’s much better on draft.
