Dec 2, 2003 Deep and dark, large brown head. Roasty aroma. Roasted malt flavor up front with a fair amount of bitterness. Very dry finish, almost chalky. Pretty average.

Nov 7, 2003 The bottle's fat body and narrow, straight neck, made it impossible to keep this beer from glug-glugging, but that was only part of the reason the beer had such a huge head. Long after pouring you could see sheets of super-tiny bubbles weaving upward to a head that never quite faded. The body was darkly black, and took tilting to see any color. The aroma was light except for a sour dish-rage smell that was a little off-putting. The flavor was not sour, but after an initial bit of roast, tapered off to be more on the bland side. Very dry though.

Oct 30, 2003 Smells like alcohol, a little fruit and vinegar. Head is ok, but not much to it. Medium bodied mouthfeel. Sharp sting to it- bitterness from hops I think. Certainly not a normal stout. Drinkable, but I won't buy it again.

Oct 28, 2003 Pours a dark black color with nice head and lacing. The aroma is very mild with some hints of chocolate and pomegranate. The flavor is mild with coffee and sweet malt. Finishes very smoky and mild. Overall this is a very mild stout, pretty solid foundation.

Oct 27, 2003 Pours a nice dark black with ruby edges, an off white head and it has some lacing. Aroma is kind of light, coffee and some chocolates are present. Unsweetened chocolate flavors with hints of coffee underlying. A watery palate, as stated before, a bit burnt in the finish. Not too impressive of a stout.

Oct 1, 2003 This one gets points strictly for the label art. Pours very dark and aromatic, with a teeny tiny little frothy head. This is a good stout, but to me it was very light. Alot of molasses aroma and taste, with some coffee and chocolate present, but the mouthfeel is just too light. But give it a try anyway, it is worth that much. Just a little too burnt in the finish for my tastes.

Sep 27, 2003 Bottled. Poured with barely any head. Smelled like a combination of spicy raisins and worcestershire sauce. The taste was of coffee and the finish tasted like BLOOD! I am not kidding! This is probably one of the worst stouts I've had. It is drinkable, however the BLOOD finish is disgusting!
