| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Oct 15, 2009 Deep dark black with a smallish mocha head. Huge coffee-chocolate aroma. Surprisingly an easy drinker. It strikes a good balance between the typically huge coffee-based stouts and the sometimes overly sweet stouts. Like the loco cow on the label, I am licking my lips.

| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Dec 27, 2009 I enjoyed this more then I feel my rating lets on. Great coffee character mixed with a ncie milky chocolatness. A little thin, that never really wows you but at the same time is very conistently tasty from pour to finish. Some nice notes of espresso, a good hoppiness, and all so smooth. Very nice. Another treat from secret santa 09. nickd717 (1399), Palo Alto, California, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Dec 14, 2009 Bottle via trade thanks to PALMEJ1 on BeerAdvocate. Pours darkest brown with a one finger tan head and decent retention. Aroma is espresso with cream, roast, and chocolate. Coffee notes predominate. Flavor is mild roast and loads of coffee with cream, along with some milk chocolate. This is a really, really coffee-loaded beer. Not recommended if you’re planning to go to sleep right after. This will get you wired. Medium body, not as quite creamy as I expected. A little coffee astringency, but not more than it should be. Drinkability is pretty high. jimbowood (983), Athens, Georgia, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Dec 13, 2009 Draft at Kingpins. This is a nice, full flavored stout without being overpowering. One that isn’t watered down, but also one that feels like you could have 2 or three without feeling bloated. Nice.
