nuplastikk (459), Maryland, USA Aug 24, 2008 Draft at Max’s Taphouse, Baltimore. Was listed at 5% on the menu, but 3.7% sounds a little more on the mark. Pitch black color. Very subdued carbonation. Sweet and dry with lots of roasty, chocolate nuances. Excellent Stout with a lot of character. John_Hawkins (1), USA does not count Aug 17, 2008 On Nitro-Tap at Blind Tiger Ale House
Poured extremely dark with just a light reddish tone near the bottom of the glass also had a good three quarters inch cream colored head. This was a very drinkable smooth stout which had hints of bitter, smoke, and coffee at the finish.
A stout I really enjoyed mainly due to the drinkability. Immy (1583), Virginia Beach, Virginia, USA Aug 6, 2008 On tap at the brewpub. Clear cola with a brown head. Chocolaty nose, powdery. The decent nose lies - weak ass choco-coffee flavors, not much else. Smooth but too watery. Decent lace. Disappointing. Hawksfan17 (655), Conshohocken, Pennsylvania, USA Jul 28, 2008 Pours black with a mocha head that is quite frothy and leaves lacing. Smells and tastes of coffee. The flavor also has notes of chocolate. It is light but not really in a bad way. Nice amount of bitterness. Smooth and dry finish. JoeMcPhee (3807), Jackson Heights, New York, USA Jul 16, 2008 Dark black beer with a thick creamy nitro head. Aroma is very roasty. Lots of bright cocoa. Nice and roast with a kiss of acidic malts. Lean-bodied, toasty and roast. It finishes with a kiss of fruit on the back. It’s a pretty solid dry stout really.
