Nov 16, 2007 Bottle shared with tupalev, HogTownHarry, blankboy and jerc - tupalev’s bottle. Deep ruby-black with a small tan head. Aroma is sweet with notes of coffee and smoke.

Nov 7, 2007 Bottle (341ml). Shared with blankboy, GregClow and tupalev, tupalev’s bottle. Black pour, light brown head. Dry, tart, bitter roast aroma. Slightly pruney flavour - very dry - and as it warms, VERY roasty and oily. Slick mouthfeel, quite astringent, maybe a tad watery for a stout, long slightly tart oily roasty finish. A very good, if thin, dry stout.

Nov 4, 2007 Bomber from Quake1028; Nose of coffee, cocoa, and roasted malt; black with a big, glass-lacing, rust-tinged tan head; flavor of smoke, coffee, and a little bittersweet chocolate. Much better than a 3.3 rated beer! Pretty good for a $2.99 Shipyard beer!

Oct 25, 2007 Pours out thick and black with a small off white head. Aroma is roasted coffee and chocolate malt. Nice chocolate malt mouthful, but just a little thin. Leaves a nice dry coffee aftertaste.

Oct 16, 2007 Roasted Grain Vanilla aroma. Color is Black, so dark you can hold up to a light and still not see the light bulb through it. Large, firm coffee colored head I swear you could bounce a quarter off. Dry, Smoky, coffe taste with a bit of hops then a chocolate coffee finish. Very flavorful robust beer. This is probably my favorite stout.
