There’s no accounting for tastes, I suppose. beerhandy (195), Tulsa, Oklahoma, USA

Dark brown in color with clean roasted malt flavor bordering on coffee & cream. Overall, this is an extreme pleasure to drink. ahmashar (5), Stafford, Texas, USA does not count | 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jan 15, 2009 Updated: Jan 22, 2009This yours brew even better than last years. Pours relatively light for a stout, with less aroma than you would expect, but delivers great flavor. Strong malty flavor from start to finish with a great mouthfeel and finish. I wonder if this beer would do better marketed as a porter, however. SudsMcDuff (1696), was CapeTown,SA-now Houston, Texas, USA

| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Apr 11, 2005 Dark brown color with a thin fast diminshing tan head and a bit of lacing down the sides of the glass. Very stong coffee aroma with hints of chocolate. Nice coffee taste, carmels, and chocolate. I really enjoyed this one. NYHarvey (2154), New York, New York, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | 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. mmmbeer (762), Austin, Texas, USA

Hits the mouth with a wide body, heavy coffee with toffee notes, finish is very delightful- solid. Look out Guinness, if this had national promotion, you’d be heading back to Ireland.
