Dec 15, 2008 APPEARANCE: Very dark with a thick tight foam that lasted well, leaving good lacing as it dissipated.
AROMA: Dark chocolate, and coffee were most prevalent, finishing with spicey hops.
FLAVOR: A big mouthfull of dark chocolate-covered coffee beans with a nice dry hop finish. Very nice flavors blended well.
PALATE: Creamy, medium-full body lets the flavors linger long on the tongue.
OVERALL IMPRESSION: I could get in trouble with this one. I found this to be a smooth drinker.

May 25, 2007 Loved the nose on this one. Liked the dried fruit tones in both the nose and flavor. Roast malt was a little forward, but still relatively easy drinking. Espresso bean notes were evident, but not overpowering.

Apr 23, 2006 Very dark brown, almost black pour. Thick to drink with deep coffee flavor, as well as chocolate, roastiness, malts, and hopiness to finish. Similar to thier porter, but more intense coffee flavor.
