| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Dec 25, 2007 Pours black with a thick head. The taste is very malty, with a somewhat different finish. The best I can describe is a warm carbonated feeling. Good solid stout, recommended. popdoggy (100), USA

| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Dec 24, 2007 12oz bottle-pours black. quickly disappearing mocha cream head. Roasted malt and a slight alcohol taste. Definitely some chocolate as well. Not a big beer but I could have more than one of these and still have my wits about me. Very good, I like this one more than the Sam Smith Oatmeal stout. Scauca (409), Lovere, Italy
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Dec 24, 2007 Black with a creamy lasting cappuccino head. strong notes of coffee, roasted barley, licorice. Medium to full bodied, with strong flavour similar to aroma. Dry end. Challenging but nice. franksnbeans (265), Columbus, Maryland, USA
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Dec 24, 2007 Pours opaque black with a slight ruby if you try hard enough on a bright light. Soapy 2 finger chocolate milk head that dies and laces. Smells complex. Roasted malt, ground coffee and some plum/jammy smell. Taste is complex as well. Starts a little sweet, coffee grounds, bakers chocolate, fig, then finishes with a raisony wood like smokey finish with some licorice. Longest finish Ive tasted. Interesting to say the least. Medium mouthfeel with ample carbonation. Very drinkable, especially for an RIS. A different but great twist on a timeless style. Definitly worth a try, then another.
