Dec 9, 2009 Excellent stout. This is a great, clean, dry stout with big flavors. It pours a very dark brown, completely opaque with a small beige head. Black Sun looks a bit like hot cocoa made with dark chocolate. The aroma is rich and chocolatey with a hint of brown sugar. The flavor is rather dry with some lingering sweetness and a bit of ash. The mouthfeel is nice and creamy. It’s an excellent stout and easily the best dry stout that I’ve tried. Bottle was from lambtaco on Reddit.

Dec 6, 2009 Bottle courtesy Guy411. Pours an absurd milky brown with a thin cocoa-colored head. Aroma is reminiscent of chocolate milk with some roastiness and a lightly fruity note. Rich flavors of chocolate and iced coffee with lesser notes of cherries and fruity hops. Doesn’t make any sense that it would be classified as a dry stout, but regardless of style this tastes really good. Medium-bodied with a tiny bit of chalkiness and a dry finish.

Dec 6, 2009 Poured from 22 oz., dark, murky brown with a slight reddish hue and minimal tan head. Nose was mostly chocolate a bit hoppy, mostly citrus, cherry. Reminded me of a chocolate cherry cola. Medium body with a slightly oily texture. Nice finish but not exceptionally dry. Better than the Moloko.

Dec 6, 2009 22oz bottle shared by Guy411. Murky dark brown color with a small brown head. Chocolate milk with grapefruit and orange hops in the aroma, with the malt showing lots of creamy chocolate. The flavor is hoppy with some spice and grapefruit, a good dose of chocolate malt flavors and roasty bitterness. Medium bodied with medium carbonation. Interesting combo of hops and chocolate. Far from a dry stout, but an interesting American stout.
