Jet black pour with 1-inch thick tan head. Aroma is assertive like rubbing alcohol, roasted barley, oats. Smooth texture with a medium body. Begins with malt sweetness - molasses, caramel and chocolate, chewy toffee - and continues into a balancing hop spice bitterness, though subtle. Finishes on a cadence of dry and bittersweet coffee flavor. Malted barley combined with oatmeal and more roasted barley add a nice nuance to this beer which separates it from the average stout. Slick palate and a somewhat abrupt finish.

Dec 5, 2009 Bottle. Pours reddish brown with a huge brown head that slowly diminished. A richly intense aroma of chocolate, oats, coffee, tar and smoke. Creamy mouthfeel with a smooth bitterness that lingers well past the finish. A delightful stout if all aspects.

Dec 1, 2009 Szinte teljesen átláthatatlanul fekete sör,vékony de határozott világos bézs színű krémes habbal a tetején.Illata édeskés,csokoládés zabkorpa kekszhez hasonló.Íze édeskés,csokis amibe frissen pörkölt kávéaroma is lopakodik egy kis égetett cukorral és vaníliával.Tetszik hogy nem túl élénk,teste nem túl sűrű de mégis érezni hogy igen tápláló ital.Utóíze engem arra emlékeztet,amikor régen otthon a főzött kakaóba barna kenyeret dobáltam és amikor teleszívta magát kikanalaztam. Aztán kiszárad a száj tőle és hosszan így is marad,hacsak nem iszunk rá még egy kortyot.Remek ital,nekem nagyon bejött!

Nov 30, 2009 Pour is dark with a tan two fingered head. Medium body, oily and lasting. Nose is sweet oatmeal, bitter chocolate, and malt (hoppy). Taste is similar with a lasting oatmeal flavor. Great, cheap brew.

Nov 28, 2009 Poured black with a thick 2 finger, lasting head that produced excellent lacing. Aroma was malty oatmeal with a few roasty notes. Taste was roughly matching. A nice medium bodied, creamy stout for a cold thanksgiving weekend.
