On tap at Smuttynose - Hayseed, pours black with a small light brown head. Aroma brings out intensely roasted malt, with some sludgy notes and light cocoa. Flavour is anything but subtle, with a humongous wallop of chocolate fudge, roasted malt, and a little vanilla. So much going on here, with a fudgey finish. Excellent.

Taster pour at the brewery. Appearance is opaque black with tons of sparkle at the edge of the glass, creamy light brown head with great retention and light leggy lacing. Aroma is red wine, roasted malts. Taste is chocolate, red wine, dark fruits--sweet. Palate is full bodied with smooth, creamy texture, soft carbonation and finish as taste. Overall, this is really a nice decadent treat. Solid across the board.

Pours deep brown into a snifter. Mocha head with medium retention recedes to hug rim. Chocolate and grape aromas. Soft with sweet chocolate and espresso upfront turning to red wine in the lasting finish.

(Thanks, Chris! "AirForceHops") Bottle. A- Red wine, grapes, plums. A- Black color, dark liquid, minimal head. T- Chocolate, grapes, plums, wine barrel. P- Full body, average texture, average carbonation, smooth finish. O- Really nice stuff. The wine barrel aging is perfect. Not full of tannins and imparts a tasty red wine/grape flavor and aroma that is there but not overpowering. Almost reminds me of a port wine. Drinks like 5% not 11%. Tasty stuff for sure.

Half liter bottle from State Line. Dark brown, thin creamy tan head, good retention. Aroma of roasted malts, leather, tobacco, coffee, hints of red wine. The taste is roasted malts, vanilla, chocolate, leather, red wine in the finish. Full bodied, creamy, booze completely hidden. Smuttlabs should just stick to imperial stouts because damn they do them well!

Bottle purchased at 7Eleven, Kittery. Pitch black color, thin, fast dying head. Aroma is plenty of red grape and plum notes. Mild oak.
Flavor shows the red wine barrel but it never overwhelms my palate. Red grape is deep with light oak tannins that compliment the base stout. The body is mostly full with just a touch of alcohol after the sip.
