Dec 2, 2007 Updated: Dec 3, 2007Draught into shaker at the brewery. Dark, opaque brown colour with a thin tan head and nice stair-step lacing. Aroma is bittersweet chocolate and a little molasses. The flavour is fantastic with more dusty chocolate and warming alcohol. The 8.9 ABV is well hidden until the finish, but it does add up. Very enjoyable IP stout and I look forward to trying other brews here based on this beer. I’d love to share this beer but currently not available in any form (bottles or growlers) other than draught at the brewery.

Dec 5, 2007 2007 PP SAF: Opaque with long lasting head and very good lace. The aroma has notes of coffee, chocolate, walnut, leather, plum, prune, and molasses esters. The taste has a rich malty profile with some twangy dark fruits. Earthy, smoky and woody as well. The mouth feel is oily and smooth with a chalky finish. Really solid stuff that I would try again.

sweet and sour dark chocolate aroma,

Oct 19, 2008 Draught at the brewpub
Black color, brown creamy head. The aroma shows some coffee, cardboard, fish. Good body strength, the mouthfeel is smooth enough, it has a strong roasted malt flavor, luckily with also a small sweetness to make it more drinkable, correct bitterness. The roasted malt leads in the final. Good.

Jan 1, 2008 on tap-pours a disappearing light brown head and black color. Aroma is coffee, then anise/licorice/molasses/dark malt. Taste is anise/licorice/molasses/dark malt, some spice hops, then coffee which follows into after taste. Nice, rich, full body. OK carbonation.

Feb 10, 2008 Very dark color. Aroma seemed to have a little coffee almost, but nothing of coffee in the flavor. Strong, but not particularly tasty. Not roasty, just has a bit too much of an alcohol bite. Very little head. Overall, not impressed.
