Aug 17, 2005 Bottle. Black pour. Fairly large roasted and chocolate malt aroma for just a stout. Flavor was very acidic and tart/sour. Beyond this, loads of coffee and roasty chocolate flavors. Decent body, just too tangy/tart.

Aug 9, 2005 Deep black brown. No residual head after a minute or two, carbonation not that high. Nose chocolate, dark fruity sweetness. Flavor starts prune and molasses, finishes with high coffee bitterness. Would be better except for the finish, which is somewhat medicinal. My first thought tasting this one was "great, I have five more of these", but it’s actually a bit better than the first impression.

Aug 7, 2005 Poured black with a little dark brown around the edges. Small tan head that receded rather quickly. Aroma was full of roasty chocolate and coffee malts. Dry and bitter when it first hit the palate. That was followed by the same roasty flavors from the aroma. Dry coffee finish. Medium-bodied, but seemed to have a cola-like consistency. Not exceptional, but worth a shot.

Jul 2, 2005 Jet black with a lasting tan head. Aroma is a bit sour but full of roasted malts and chocolate. First taste is tangy biting hops but then theres a lactic flavor that shows up. All in all, it finishes clean enough with enough coffee to make the whole thing worthwhile. Worth a go.

Jun 30, 2005 What Chuck said on appearance, it needs lacing to get a 5. The aroma is pretty much the same, although I get a huge cocoa aroma too. The flavor is very chocolatey and roasted, dry roasted malt. The palate is lightly bitter and dry, medium full mf.

Jun 30, 2005 Pours a thick dark black w/ some carb bubbles and a nice frothy tan head. Smells largely of roasted malt and a touch of carmel.. a little dark fruit but not much. Palate is sticky well coated creamy and good w/ a nice carbonation. Flavor is a nice roasted malt a hint of bitterness bitterness a touch of sweet in the first tongue touch. A very basic taste but done well.

Jun 12, 2005 (bottle) Medium body. Tastes like roated malt and caramel, slightly bitter but balanced by a fruity sweet smell. Thanks CaptainCougar!

May 6, 2005 Bottle: Opaque, dark brown edges, large light brown foamy head, sticky lacing. Roasted malt, apple/pear skin in the nose. Fairly sweet roasted malt flavor, soft fig/raisin, a bit of apple/pear skin. Low IBUs. Moderate body and mouthfeel. Roasty finish, lingering fruity notes. Not light, but not big, but otherwise very enjoyable. Thanks Mr Dick!
