Pretty good, but nothing to write home about. As advertised, smooth with just a hint of fruityness. I remember their double chocolate stout as being much better.

Bottle: pours a deep dark color that light can’t penitrate with a thick dark-tan head. Light hoppy aroma with roasty malt aromas. Roasty oatmeal flavor with hints of oatmeal and chocolate. Very tasty. Thin stout-like palate, maybe a slight creamy feeling. Overall, very good.

Bottle. Black colour with a big tan head. Roasted malty notes in the aroma, also some hints of chocolate. Smooth and slighty roasted malty flavor, some hints of chocolate. Finish is slighty roasted with some bitterness.

Bott from E. Earthy coffee aroma. Ful strong black coffee, dirt, wort funk finish. light hop. Just right, very good. Smooth. distinct bean. Black with red tinge and fine small tan head. An excellent example with no negative qualities to speak of and quite quaffable.

Pours a very dark brown, almost black with medium carbonation and an off white head. Aroma is of roasted malt, chocolate, coffee. Taste is of bitter coffee, roast, slight chocolate with a roasty bitter finish.

Has a very burnt flavor. The carbonation is fizzy with a bitter coffee taste. Not as smooth as I expected for an oatmeal stout.

Black body,smels like burnd coffee beans. A smouth porter with a long coffee bitternes in the end. A nice porter from the homeland of Porter!

Had it in a bottle, very strong roasted coffee flavor. I like the chocolate stout better, but this isn’t bad.
