| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Jul 23, 2007 Draft @ Union Barrel Works, pre-BCTC beerventure. Pours a dark brown core; light tan head with strong lacing. Pleasant, roasted malts and light chocolate in the aroma; well-roasted. Lively carbonation in a medium mouthfeel: roasted and toasted malts upfront, with a creamy milk chocolate presence mid-palate; medium-density, drinkable stout. Medium, chocolate and dry roasted finish. DocLock (4648), Lower Pottsgrove, Pennsylvania, USA
| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Jul 16, 2007 Draft. Dark brownish black color with 1-finger khaki head. Aroma of roasty patent malts, chocoff, some molasses and ovaltine. The palate is hefty, with an overall dry flavor composed of dark malt, chocoff, smoked almond, some molasses, and some finishing hops. This one was great. biznizness (956), Mooresville, North Carolina, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jul 6, 2007 Really nice stout, definitely the best brew on the menu. Deep toasty flavor, and lots of it. Perfect way to finish off a meal or the night in general. Nejhleader (930), Lemoyne, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jun 14, 2007 good body, nice and dark, has a nutty/roast aroma, flavor is very very roasty, almost burnt tasting. It would be the equivalant of a very very well done burger, good brew. Dickinsonbeer (3502), Hoboken, New Jersey, USA
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jun 9, 2007 Really nice stout coming from a lager brewery. Pours a nice deep black with mild carbonation, and a lsting deep tan head. Aroma is loaded with roasted malts, good amount of chocolate, hints of tar, and a bit of smoke as well. Nice roast and acrid burnt malt flavor, chocolate and nutty notes, with a nice floral hop character at the end to balance out the black malt acidity. Solid stout. obxdude10 (1563), Pottstown, Pennsylvania, USA
| 4.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 5/5 | 9/10 | 5/5 | 18/20 | May 6, 2007 This was one fantastic stout, could have sat there all night & drank this one, very delicious & enjoyable, almost black in color, excellent lacing with the big & bold tan head, lots of roasted notes in the aroma, toasted grain, coffee & bread, medium-full body with flavors of oatmeal, a little rye bread, toasted grains & dark roasted coffee, very smooth finish with more roasted flavors with a subtle hint of cream, an awesome stout

| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 13/20 | May 3, 2007 On tap at the brewpub. Pours a dark, almost completely black. Nice tan head, but it’s not the creamy head one gets with a Guiness - sorry, but isn’t almost every stout compared to Guiness? The flavor is fantastic - roasty, toasty, chocolatey, but the carbonation is wrong. It’s smooth, but not creamy.
