Jan 12, 2008 Updated: Aug 26, 2008Batch 1: Incredibly dense, and heavy. Pours super dark and has a very potent coffee odor on the nose. This is my favorite stout from southern tier, even over the oat. The powerful coffee flavor makes this a winner in my book. Very highly recommened. Thanks ST!!

Jan 10, 2008 22oz bottle from Secret Santa summer 07. Real good sweet chocolate aroma on the nose. Black body with dark tan head. Flavor is a thick rich dose of creamy chocolate and roasted malts. Had some alcohol bitterness in the mix but not a big factor. Body warming was cggod seeing it was a cool damp foggy morning in the desert. Thanks John from Pa. Only santa havn’t really figured out who it was.

Jan 10, 2008 Bottle. Pours inky black with a thin dark yellow/brown head. Aroma is huge wallop of espresso, dark chocolate, peat, burnt sugar, molasses. Flavor profile matches the aroma, more espresso, molasses, burnt suger, chocolate. Palate is massive, sans carbonation, finishes on the bitter side, with a huge, sticky, syrupy mouthfeel. Awesome.

Jan 8, 2008 Bottle pours a clear deep black with a modest brown head. Strong sweet chocolate and cofee aroma. Flavors of tootsie roll, coffee and the bite of plenty of IBUs. Still quite sweet and tons of roasted flavor. Delicious.

Jan 7, 2008 pours a thick, oily black/brown with a tannish brown head. head is thin. aroma is green coffee beans, roasty dark chocolate, some dark fruits and rich, rich fudgy chocolate. taste is similar to the aroma with lots of coffee beans, almost straight espresso, less of the chocolate flavor and a strong roasty quality. this one might be really good with age. thick, oily mouthfeel with a bitter finish. alcohol is there, it adds a very sweet quality to it. imagine making a batch of espresso that was twice the normal potency and drinking it straight. very nice, i feel. i notice the kahlua that others have pointed out. i really think this would get MUCH better with a year or two of aging.

Jan 6, 2008 Bottle. WOW WOW WOW!!!!!!! Pours a deep opaque almost black with a brownish head, small in size but thick in density. Huge aroma of roasted malts, coffee, and dark cocoa. Flavor is also huge, coffee and bitter dark chocolate flavors dominate, but ther is a hop bitterness right in there as well. This beer is AWESOME!
