On tap at Lavery, pours black with a small brown head. Aroma brings out gentle earthy coffee and some medium roast. Flavour is rich and malty, with medium roast, some earthy coffee, and a hint of green pepper. Roasty and earthy, with a decent coffee expression, but I can't shake the green pepper. It's alright.

Draft - Big roast coffee. Jet black with a decent brown head. Lots of dark roast coffee and some chocolate notes. Rich and great espresso notes throughout. Well done.

12 ounce bottle. Opaque black color topped by a large rocky tan head. Roasted malt aroma has coffee and oat notes. Sweet roasted malt flavor has a creamy, sticky mouthfeel. Big dark coffee notes and sweet cocoa as well. Finish is roasty with hints of vanilla and oats. Tasty.

Sampled on draft at Social this beer poured a black color with a medium sized foamy dark brown head that lingered and left excellent lacing. The aroma was dry, roasty, biter and had notes of floral hops, coffee and vanilla. The flavor was bitter, toasty, very malty and had strong notes of coffee and vanilla. Very long coffee and vanilla finish. Moderately full bodied. Solid.

Bottle @ weekly tasting shared by Joes. Opaque pitch black color, medium sized light brown head that lasts for a decent while. Aroma is malts, roasted malts, huge coffee and sweetish coffee roast. Wow, intense! Taste malts, firm to huge coffee again, roasted malts, bitter. Really nice. Medium body and carbonation. Nice one!

Bottle thanks to a trade! Pours black with a creamy brown head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has a dry roasted malt note with bitter coffee and a bit of dark grains backing. Flavor is a bit more smooth with dark grains and coffee but has a bit of dry roasted malts towards the finish.

This was poured into a nonic pint glass.
The appearance was a black color with a one finger off whitefoamy head that dissipated within less than a minute. Light lacing stuck in rings around my glass.
The smell had a huge combination of roasty coffee beans to big milk and dark chocolate goodness.
The taste was basically the same smooth sweet roasty coffee to chocolate. Sticky sweet roasty aftertaste leads to a sticky sweet chocolate finish.
On the palate, this one sat about a medium on the body with a fairly decent sipping to sessionable quality about it. Smooth sticky roasty sweetness clings to my tongue.
Overall, I say this was a wonderful breakfast stout that I would love to have again.
