Apr 2, 2008 Black pour with a thick, persistent ash-colored head. Nice looking brew. Sweet roasty aroma with a touch of nuttiness and earth in the background. Roast component lays nicely under a vaguely lactose mouthfeel. Bitter dark chocolate finish that is lasting and tasty. Rich, smooth, and roasty.

Apr 2, 2008 Bottle: Opaque pour with creamy brown head. Lots of roast in the nose with some grainy earthy bark and dark chocolate. Rich velvety/creamy body with a better flavor than aroma. Richly roasted flavor with some mocha & coffee flavors, accompanied by bitter dark chocolate. There’s also a smoky touch and a tobacco hint in the later palate. Rich malt presence and easy drinking.

Mar 31, 2008 Black with a tan head. Aroma is chocolates and coffee. Flavor has a buttery presence to it, but otherwise is a nice bittersweet that finishes strong with a coffee bitterness. Not picking up heavily on the oatmeal though.

Mar 30, 2008 Bottle. Beautiful pour: dark black with a huge, thick and creamy dark tan head. Left pretty lacing on my pint glass. Aroma and taste predominantly of coffee, but also some oat, faint chocolate. Some bitterness, but certainly not as bitter as other stouts that I’ve had. Very good, very drinkable.

Mar 30, 2008 Well, it’s not a 4.0 but it’s not bad. Brown, almost black pour, with a medium light brown head, vanishes, moderate lacing. Nose of coffee and dark malts. Taste of coffee, dark malts, some chocolate, and some hops in the finish. Not a Storm King or an Expedition or a Beer Geek breakfast. Bonus points for succeeding with low alcohol.

Mar 29, 2008 (Dégusté avec french tickler) Tres belle apparence noir avec un collet exeptionnel. Odeur de café, chocolat et cofee crisp. Gout crémeux de chocolat et encore une fois de cafe. Une biere tres recommander!

Mar 28, 2008 Flaske. Vældig flot øl, med en diskret duft af frugt og chokolade. Der er ikke så megen smag til at begynde med andet en diskret kaffe. Denne kaffe går over i en lang bitterhed. Rigtig god øl.

Mar 27, 2008 Thanks to Skyview for sharing. Dark brown with off-white head. A very smokey aroma with dark malts, chocolate, and some hops. A similar body with a smokey finish.
