It has everything I look for in a good stout. It’s Dark brown, malty, roasty, bitter. So I had another. thejon375 (392), Tampa, Florida, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Mar 11, 2009 Good stout, a little weak in flavor, hints of blueberry. Expected more out of shipyard, but overall not a bad stout. Snojerk321 (1962), San Diego, California, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Mar 4, 2009 12 bottle from my Shipyard guy. Pours opaque black with a small tan head. A good balance of coffee, chocolate, toffee and toasted malts in the nose. Nice roasty flavor with some coffee and cocoa. A good recovery from shipyard as most of the stuff I’ve tried from them as of late has sucked. bconley (351), Fern Park, Florida, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Feb 11, 2009 Tap at Mellow Mushroom. Not what I’d consider a great stout, but not bad. Black color. Light coffee in the smell. Felt a bit watery for a stout. Hops come in toward the end. Bitterness weird. nearbeer (1834), Knoxville, Tennessee, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Feb 7, 2009 12 oz, bb May 09. Opaque with a small lasting disc of cream. Aroma of espresso, light char and metallic berry. Tastes of espresso and slight berries, turning to charred oat, wood and grain. Medium-heavy body is silky smooth, watery in a drinkable way, and roasty-dry. By far the best I’ve had from this brewery. Radek Kliber (3945), Toronto (Can) Krotoszyn (Pol), Ontario, Canada
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Feb 1, 2009 Bottle 355 ml
Appearance: Deep mahogany with cherry wood. Large tanned creamy , rocky head. 4+ Nose: Sweet , vinous , roasty black malts , bit of ash , plum. Dry backing on mineral hop. 8- Flavor/Palate : Medium bodied. Malty sweets with green hops well blended with roasted walls. Quiet rich for lighter beer. Slight acidicity gives to complexity. A bit of tweaking with formula can make this brew great. Slightly off target when comes to ingredient interaction. Still quiet good.

| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jan 23, 2009 Poured almost black with a short, almost tan head. The aroma was malt, roasted coffee and slightly sour. The flavor was better with plenty of malt, coffee and a slight bit of creamy chocolate. The mouthfeel was closer to thin than it was to medium. Overall it’s a serviceable example of the style.
