May 22, 2008 Average aroma and appearance. Nice flavor but too light. Mouthfeel was thin and watery. Hardly any aftertaste.

May 16, 2008 22oz sampled while in Boulder, CO. Nice impressive pour, inky black and clearly quite a substantial body. Minimal head, but not a big deal for this style. The nose was heavy on the chocolate malts, very lush but without the roasts other reviews have mentioned. Big chewy body, but I felt that the flavor profile was a bit one-dimensional - even for a cream stout I want just a trace more bitterness.

Apr 18, 2008 Rich coffee, toffee, and dark chocolate nose. Black with a faint red hue. Creamy head that stays. Bittersweet chocolate, with some smokiness. At first seems full bodied, but finishes a little thin. Decent Stout, the huge bittersweet chocolate characteristics are interesting.

Mar 14, 2008 When you think of a ho-hum watery stout, you think of Twisted Pine Cream Style Stout. Nothing great here. Very little on the nose, pours a pretty nice dark color with a head that doesn’t last long. Coffee and toasted malt flavors come through. Pretty sweet and very watery on the palate. Just "meh". Not a very inspiring beer, but not terrible.

Dec 1, 2007 Had this beer on 9/4/1999. Color is deep black, carbonation looks good with nice head. Aroma is a rich toasted malt scent. Taste is rich, sweet, and toasted. Starting with a rich body it goes down sweet. The finish is a bit different for a stout the sweetness turns to a toasted flavor and this becomes a slightly burnt, bitter taste.
