Absolutely zero head. How does a stout have no head? Baffling. Anyway, taste was fine though. Body was a bit thin/weak though.

Aug 31, 2008 Dark pour, mild roasty aroma. Decent attempt at a dry stout. Moderate level of sweetness and an ok mouthfeel. Chocolate and oats were noticeable behind the roast. Nothing really mind-blowing about this. It irks me when brewers put mediocre beers of a "non-big beer" style into bombers, though. Why?

Jul 18, 2008 Courtesy of Ibrew20r3. Thanks, Dave. The aroma starts tart and holds dark fruit, burnt/roasted malt and some surprisingly noticeable alcohol. The body is deep black and holds a thin, receding, tan head. Very sweet fore with chocolate, mild to medium roasted notes, a bit of bitter crushed aspirin and some mild cola notes. On the thin side.

Jun 24, 2008 Black with a frothy tan head. Nice malted chocolate nutty aroma. Smooth, slick mouthfeel. Decent flavors of lightly sweet cocoa with bitter blackened malts. Has a dry finish with black malt flavors. Not too bad.
