Heavy pour yeilds pleasant aroma and not so outrageous head. Full mollases taste. Nice and sweet with a crisp acrid ending. The balance of this swings from one end to the other. I think that the this one has peaked or I have an old bottle. I think the lattitud of this brew has turned the stout goodness to glue

Aroma of malt and a bit of yeasty fruit. Nearly opaque brown color with a vigorous tan head. Starts with medium mouthfeel, and a slight sweetness. Not much toast or chocolate. Very smooth. After a bit it turns dryish. It seems that if there’s a while between swallows, the sugar gets away and a bit of bitter is present.

Dark dark red. Sour corn, malty aroma. Slight fruity and stale cereal flavor a hint of licorice and medicine flavor. I would only seek it out if it was the only colored beer in a cowboy bar.

This is a beer that I drink a lot because of its relation cost-benefit, it is cheap and good. It is dark and the head has a beautiful brown with a soft texture. The aroma and the flavour are sweet caramel. Velvety swallow. Not a complex beer, but a beer to drink every day.

Bottle. Deep black with faint ruby highlights and a small, papery tan head. Aroma is thin but I pick up coffee malt, cocoa and an earthy spiciness. Flavor is sweet and fruity up front with roasted coffee malt coming right behind it and a bit of licorice. Mild roasted finish with a body that seems on the watery end of medium. Pretty good but just a bit too subdued compared to some of the best of this style.

Bottle. Pours somewhere between ruby and black with a one finger tan head. The aroma is weak toffee, caramel, and maybe a bit of cocoa, and a good dose of earth. The flavors of raisin and plum dominate, but are not dense. A bit of roastiness comes out from time to time. It has enough hops to give it some bite, but contributes a fairly neutral flavor. A bit of a Pepsi taste at the end. Not bad.
