Commercial Description:
This is our strongest, darkest and most heavy regular offering. It is virtually black in color and features rich roasted malt flavor with a delicate caramel and vanilla finish. It is carbonated and served with the use of nitrogen gas, giving the Black Water a beautiful cascading pour and thick, creamy foam atop your glass. Made with only the freshest American malts and English hops.

Sample from tap at the brewpub. Pours dark brown to black with chocolate brown head. Aroma of mild roasted malt, a hint of toffee and chocolate and mild coffee. Flavour is soft malty dark, slight coffee. Slight citric note, but it goes down in a soft malty dark blend. Mild malty finish.

RBSG 2007 Pub Crawl - Black, tan creamy head, Nose held notes of soft roasted coffee, creamy vanilla oats, milk chocolate, and hints of caramel. Lightly burned chocolate malt flavor is well balanced with a touch of roasted sweet caramel. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, dry bittersweet finish. One of the better TH brews this night...

On tap at brewpub during RBSG planning meeting. Pours an opaque near black brew with a thick and creamy dark tan head. Nice spotty lacing. Aroma of brown sugar, molasses, oatmeal, dark chocolate and a touch of coffee. Taste is medium body, a little acidic, some bitterness in the finish. Palate is smooth and a little watery.

Draft at the brewpub. Aroma: Nice roasted malt aroma with notes of chocolate, coffee, vanilla, and light smoke. Some deep caramel and sticky oatmeal as it warms. Appearance: Black in color with a medium khaki head. Head was full and creamy with great retention. Good lacing. Flavor: Roasted malt with notes of coffee, smoke, oats, chocolate, toasted nuts, and light vanilla. Nice malt sweetness throughout, but finishes medium-dry with some roast flavors carrying over. Palate: Medium-full bodied and creamy. Moderate carbonation. Overall: I would have consumed this all day if I could have. Great session-able stout.
