From a 355ml bottle on 5/9/2013. Pours close to black with a small head. Has a pleasant aroma of caramel, chocolate and plum. Flavour wise, this is beautifully balanced with sweet chocolate, caramel, licorice, red grapes and prunes, followed by a distinct, relatively firm, lingering, slightly roasty bitterness. The body is medium to full and the carbonation subdued. An impressive sweet stout.

Pours pitch black with small tan head. Very good roasty appetizing aroma. Seems like its too strong for a sweet stout. Hides the alcohol pretty well. Taste starts dry and rolls into a chocolate malt and finishes sweet. Palate is dry. Overall pretty good, but a little bit thin for a stout. No major flaws though.

Clear reddish black colour, tan head. Aroma of caramel, malts, light metallic, lactose. Sweet flavour, lactose, caramel, malts. Sweet lactose finish, light roasted notes. Decent, but missing the wow-factor.

On tap at Hay Merchant. Pours a dark brown with a thick creamy beige head that lasts awhile leaving sticky lacing along the glass. The aroma is roast, lacto, vanilla. Thin mouthfeel with rich chocolate malt and light lacto and roastiness with sweet finish. Very good.

Black pour with a tall tan head. Sweet chocolate and roast malt aroma. The flavor is unsweetened chocolate on the front with bitterness coming in on the back side. a little chalky and smooth. Hides the alcohol completely.

On tap at the rivertowne in Irwin. Very good roasty appetizing aroma. Seems like its too strong for a sweet stout. Even tho its almost 8%, it hides the alky fairly well, but you still know its quite strong on the buds. Very big black pour with a tan head. Must be on nitro tho its not a nitro head, its completely flat on the palate. Yes, finish tells me this is not your typical mild sweet stout, heheh.

Pours black with a small head.Aroma of roasted malt, sweet malt, oatmeal, along with spicy hops.Lovely complex roasted malt as a flavour, with a little sweetness underneath. Some booze shows.Nice creamy carbonation. Could use a fuller body though.

Pours a solid dark brown/black color with a smallish tan head that dissipates to a ring on top. Smells of light roast, chocolate, and caramel with hints of vanilla and light fruit. The flavor is roasty and smokey with lots of chocolate and caramel as well as vanilla and dark fruits. Wow I wasn’t expecting such a complex flavor based on the aroma. Medium body with a moderate level of antiabortion and a sweet almost sugary mouthfeel. Nice stout, I’m glad I picked one up the other day.

Bottle: Two fingers of creamy tan head sits atop a very dark brown pour. The nose is straightforward enough with heavy roast and chocolate... it sets the tone for dry roastiness and hints of bittersweet cocoa. Tastes dry and roasty, as the nose suggests, and rich with baker’s chocolate. Finishes dry and roasty with a little floral hop bitterness. Now available locally so I’ll surely pick this up again.
