| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jun 25, 2006 Poured a clear very dark brown with a ruby hue and medium tan head. Sweet and roasty aroma. Chocolate with a hint of coffee and a light tartness. Flavor of tart and roasty malt. Light to medium body. CaptainCougar (5455), Rockville, Maryland, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jun 24, 2006 Bottle shared by goldtwins: Pours an opaque black with a forthy nicely-lacing tan head. Sweet caramel and chocolate malty aroma has some aged malty character and a hint of light fruit. Body starts lightly sweet and citric turning more tart and roasty toward the thinner, fruity finish. Good aroma, but the body is too tart, most likely due to age. DocLock (4648), Lower Pottsgrove, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Aug 25, 2004 Thanks to goldtwins for this one. Pours dark brown/ruby with a huge tan head. Not much lacing, but the head stayed around forever. Aroma of malt, chocoff, cabernet, and fruit. The taste showed roasty malt, with fruitiness, some nuttiness, and some finishing kriekiness. Palate was lighter than most stouts. This one had some Newcastle brown alishness to it, and was nicely complex. Quaffable. blank (998), Washington, Washington DC, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | May 5, 2004 this bear had a big head, the type the pours well over your glass and on to the table. As for the beer, tasted a lot of alcohol. There was some other flavors, but for a stout it was very light. Not the best i’ve had... MilkmanDan (1940), Eagan, Minnesota, USA
| 2.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 9/20 | Apr 10, 2004 Dark. Obnoxiously foamy, bubbled out of bottle. Nose roasty, a bit tangy. Flavor is a bit roasty, but overpowering molasses is the most noticeable taste. Overfoam makes it a bit flat. Not exciting. harlequinn (2745), Tacoma, Washington, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Feb 7, 2004 A very smooth malty stout, with lots of caramel roastedness. Pours a deep rich brown color with a nice frothy tan head. Nice and nutty, balanced and very smooth. Prostman (1077), Pennsylvania, USA
| 0.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 1/10 | 1/5 | 1/10 | 1/5 | 5/20 | Nov 5, 2003 I had to pour this one down the drain because it was so old. My uncle gave me one to try but the carbonation was overwhelming and would not settle. The taste was very acidic as well. I will have to try it again sometime.
