Nov 11, 2006 Sweet roasted malt aroma with coffee notes. Opaque black color with a tan head the color of Guinness. Immediately detected something off in the flavor. Detergent, thin, tainted.

Oct 29, 2006 This had a deep brown, thick pour with very little of a tan head. The aroma was smoky and sweet, roasty, a touch of maple and a daub of chocolate. Watery, to be sure. Light roasted malt flavor with a slightly sour nip in the finish. The brewer must’ve been angry with his papa. <font size=-4><a href=http://www.ratebeer.com/Places/ShowPlace.asp?PlaceID=2123> Taylor Brewing Company, Lombard, IL<font size=-1>

Oct 10, 2006 Pours deep ruby/black with a thin, tan skin & halo. Possesses the requisite Taylor butterscotch/diacetyl aromas along with some mild cocoa notes. Flavor finds roasty, almost smoky malts with an annoying presence of vinegar. Weak & thin. My "papa" would’ve boxed my ears if I served him one of these. <font size=-4>On tap at <a href=http://www.ratebeer.com/Place/illinois/lombard/taylor-brewing-company/2123.htm> Taylor Brewing Company, Lombard, IL 60148</font>

Jul 14, 2004 Thick, dark, and sweet. One of my favorite local-brew stout/porters. Not much nose to it, though.
