Aroma is dry, chocolatey, and dominated by coffee. Flavor has a nutty-coffee mix along with some dry roasty malts. Not bad overall. kkearn (1013), Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Nov 4, 2007 Nitro draft at Philly brewpub. Poured deep black, with a creamy beige head. roasted chocolate malt aroma. Rich, roasted malt flavor with chocolate, coffee, and mild hops. Smooth nitro body. I’d like this a hell of a lot more without the nitro, but it’s still a solid dry stout. Aurelius (2654), Tallahassee, Florida, USA

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Apr 21, 2007 on tap in Princeton. Dark brown/almost black with ruby highlights and a creamy tan head. Aroma is moderate chocolate, light roast and caramel. Taste is chocolate, sweet caramel, lightly roasty and dusty notes. Finishes lightly roasty. A good stout but not as dry as I thought it was going to be. Grandpa (325), Verona, New York, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Apr 18, 2007 I got it on tap at the Princeton brewery. I liked the nitro pour; it left a good tan, creamy head that lasted. A stronger malt flavor and not quite as hoppy as the standard Dry Stout, more to my liking. Full bodied, mouth coating with a fine aftertaste. RiverHorse (454), New Jersey, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Apr 11, 2007 On tap at Triumph Brewery in Princeton. Pours a very dark brown with a small tan head. I smelled nuts, chocolate and malt. The taste is chocolate, coffee and some malt. I really enjoyed the dryness of this one...I didn’t know what to expect, but the roastiness really does wonders on the palate. This was the best beer on Tap there.
