Smooth on the palate with a good body to it. Pours dark borwn witha small tan head. Very well built stout balancing a good chocolate character with a lightly hoppy bitter finish.

North Coast certainly do stouts well, as we all know, but this one is probably the least of their offerings. It’s still quite tasty, with a vigorous body, big chocolate malts, and a pleasant roastiness. But nothing particularly memorable. hopscotch (5472), Vero Beach, Florida, USA

Clear, dark mahogany ale with a small, creamy, off-white head. Excellent retention. Nutty, creamy milk chocolate nose. Nice roast. Chocolaty, toasty flavor. Balanced well... not sweet, but not burnt nor bitter. Medium-bodied with a skim milk mouthfeel and fizzy carbonation. Lengthy, coffee, lightly bitter finish. crazyvin (1250), New York, USA

Pours deep brown with a thick fizzy beige head. Aroma of coffee, dark roast, and chocolate milk. Medium thin palate. Flavor of mild and smooth roasted coffee beans, with a hint of unsweetened chocolate. Finish has a very soft bitterness with hints of caramel and raisen. Not bad. I liked that it was packed with flavor without being thick and chewy.
