| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 2/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Oct 7, 2007 Bottle at home. Poured beep brown with a hint of red. Not opaque, easy to see light through. Highly carbonated huge off white head filled my pint leaving only an inch of beer. Thick head left serious lacing on the glass. Aroma has hints of espresso. Flavor is sweet with notes of coffee, malt and chocolate although they are less noticeable than I anticipated. Body is thin. I found the finish to be surprisingly mild considering other reviews. Average stout. jwdevalue (158), Neptune, New Jersey, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Sep 29, 2007 This is part of a beer club. Had only one bottle but was decent for the price. Poured great and had a nice finish. Would do again. chriso (4851), London, Greater London, England
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Sep 23, 2007 Cask (handpump) at GBBF, August 2006. Almost black but a close examination reveals a very slight red tinge. Mild roasted aroma with touches of chocolate. Fairly light bodied with more powdery cocoa and chocolate. Mellow mouthfeel with a touch of dry bitterness on the finish. Quite tasty, wholesome even, but perhaps just lacks a little depth..

| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Aug 13, 2007 A Sim rate (50cl bottle from Utobeer): Smells like a rubber tyre with some espresso and raisins thrown in. Creamy and a tinge alcoholic. Tastes similar but with a very bitter finish. Opaque dark brown with a decent head.
