May 8, 2005 Draft. Poured a black color with a average light brown head. Average aroma of roasted malt and chocolate. Flavor and body was a moderate well balanced stout with a medium dry finish. OK for style.

May 4, 2005 Black Coloring with Sandy Ring. Chocolate and Coffee Roasts Aroma. Instant Hit of Sweet Mocha Hits the Tongue...Smooth Chocolate and Coffee Melting Together. The Flavor Isn’t Quite Right On but It’s Balanced Well Enough.

Apr 20, 2005 I had this right after the Bells Cream, and the flavor of this paled in comparison. Very nice pour, dark and thinck with a frothy chocolate head. Aroma is chocolate and malt. Very creamy and smooth, but slightly lacking in flavor. Has some malt and creamy chocolate. but not a lot of complexity or stength.

Apr 11, 2005 Black color with no head. Bold bitter chocolate aroma. More of the same in the taste with some plain malt and some noticeable roasted malt that bitters this much more than a sweet stout would usually be. I missed the coffe. Swell beer!

Feb 20, 2005 Deep brown body, medium cream/light tan head. Chocolate and a touch of coffee in addition to roasted notes comprise the aroma. Creamy, rich body, with dark chocolate, roasted malts, coffee, a touch of licorice, and a chalky bite. Roasty finish. Quaffable? Yes. Unique? No. Do I still like this beer? Yes. Would I drink another? Yes. Did I just break pattern? Yes. Do I care? No.

Jan 16, 2005 Updated: Feb 12, 2006Opaque with nice full tan head. The aroma is a bit malty, chocolate and roasted mostly. There is also a definate strong coffee aroma and a hit of sweet malt. The flavor has the same roasty and chocolate malt that is present in the aroma, but the chocolate has a chalky character and some muted coffee provides depth. A little bitterness closes the door on the roasted malt. There is a sweet and seemingly chalky chocolate finish and it is also smooth and roasted. Nice stout, to be top notch it probably needs more depth.

Aug 8, 2004 Deep, dark black with a medium tan head. The aroma is fully roasty and chocolaty...very inticing! The flavor is well roasted with lots of coffee and bittersweet chocolate...definite lactic sourness in the aftertaste. Medium thin feel...very crisp. I’ll agree with my wife and say that this is "very tasty." Thanks mike.
