Nov 26, 2008 Pours black with foaming brown head, that quickly dissipitates. Neutral aroma, faint roast. A bit thin mouthfeel, with ground powdered coffee taste, backed by malt. OK, but rather plain stout. Carbonation is fine.

Sep 5, 2008 12 oz bottle from Kaggie97! Nose is a creamy chocolate, some light vanilla, and roastiness; extremely dark clear brown with a medium beige head; flavor is very chocolatey with a light dose of coffee.

Jul 18, 2008 lb4lb bought me this round. The aroma is fairly fruity with light chocolate and roast notes. Get a pretty good dose of nose tickling co2 as well. The body is a ruby hued black and holds a nice looking, finger thick, tan head that is most lasting, but leaves little lace. Very concentrated roasted malt, bitter dark and sweet milk chocolate, a hint of coffee and a dose of dark fruits that leans to ripe blueberry. This taste much better than I would have guessed from the low score. A bit thin, but not unforgivably so and this is much assuaged by a very tasty flavor profile. Vastly underrated this one.

Jun 30, 2008 Very tasty caramel malts. The whole malt profile is light for a stout; no robust burnt flavors. A bit watery though.

Jun 14, 2008 Bottle courtesy lb4lb. Thin black pour with a barely perceptible light tan head. Light roasty grain, chocolate malt aroma. Chocolate malt and roasty grain taste, but much thinner than I thought it would be. Very easy drinking cold weather stout.

May 7, 2008 Bottle shared by ogglethorp: Pours a dark brown with a light tan head. Aroma, caramel, some apples. Flavor, caramel, brown sugar, chocolate, some coffee, kinda boring.

May 7, 2008 12 oz bottle, via lb4lb. Pours a clear mahogany brown body, rather light in color for a Stout. Nice fizzy foamy one inch light brown head. The nose is as nutty and toasty as it is roasty with a slight hint of fruitiness. The flavor is dry chalky toasted malt with a lighter accent of roast and weak-brewed coffee. Some fruitiness mid swallow and a touch of plum on the finish before the cocoa powder and caramel laced finish sets in. Mouthfeel is fairly thin and watery with a touch too much fizzy carbonation, which only re-enforces the thin body. Overall, this is really pretty borderline on the Stout style. This almost fits in better with Brown Ales.

May 7, 2008 12 oz. bottle: Pours deep mahogany brown with a bubbly off-white head. Tastes of sweet, toasted malts and dried apple. Did not get any coffee from this. Highly carbonated for a stout, with a curious nutty finish. This tasted more like a brown ale to me.
