Jul 6, 2009 Updated: Aug 12, 2009Hints at espresso...a thin body but the flavor lingers. Pours with a great head and nice lacing. Very enjoyable.

Jun 27, 2009 This is a bottle that is after the best before date, so this might not be as high as a fresher rating might get. Has basically a pure black color with some brown head. I can smell sweeter malts, chocolate, a little coffee, and a roasty slightly smoked scent. Taste is full of chocolate and malts. Similar to a good brown ale. Aftertaste leaves a little bite, but nothing that’s obscene.

Jun 27, 2009 Pours dark brown with a dark beige head. Great big ol’ chocolate nose with a bit of coffee and roast. More coffee flavor than chocolate but they are both still very robust and good as hell. Medium/full body with appropriate carbonation. Roasted dry finish. Very very good beer.

Jun 12, 2009 Near-black pour with a frothy tan head. Aroma is of roasted malts and milk chocolate. Full bodied, creamy mouthfeel. Flavor is dark, roasted malts, coffee, chocolate... a recipe for bitterness but this one is smooth. Lingering milky chalikiness, lactose?, bit of citrus/orange hoppage towards the finish. Solid and tasty but I’m surprised it’s rated so high with so little complexity.
