Refrigerated bottle poured into a shaker. Pours opaque black with small light brown head that dissapates quickly. Little lacing, medium/thick body, silky texture, medium/low carbonation, and wonderful roast aroma. Taste is roasted malt, some chocolate, some lactose, hint of coffee, and light bitter finish. Better than I expected.

Location: 12 oz bottle from Colonial Wine and Spirits, 2/27/12
Aroma: The nose is somewhat subtle, with some roasted malts, and hints of coffee and chocolate
Appearance: This one pours a brown-black color with a light brown head and medium lace
Flavor: Tastes lightly sweet, with a dry roasted coffee flavor, and a pretty amount minimal of hop bitterness
Palate: Light-medium bodied, somewhat light for the style, but not watery, with an average carbonation
Overall Impression: This is an alright stout. It is drinkable, and works decently well. I didn't find anything particularly wrong with it, but it isn't particularly exciting either. It is just a solid, fairly drinkable, roasty stout.

12oz bottle pours pretty darn dark with thin dark tan head. The aroma offers up dark roasted malts, some burnt malts and then picks up malt like earthiness that seems a touch like oxidation. The taste is pretty rich with an initial mix of earthy maltiness, milk chocolate, dark roasted maltiness and a firm layer of dark roasted coffee. It climbs into a modest sense of roasted malt astringency into the finish that seems to take away whatever creaminess that was trying to shine through from the oatmeal.

Bottle. Black body with a frothy tan head. Sweet aroma of bittersweet chocolate, roasted malt, caramel, cocoa. The flavor is moderately sweet and and lightly bitter. It finishes moderately sweet and lightly to moderately bitter. Medium to full body, velvety texture and lively carbonation. Sweet chocolate tastes give way to bitter roast with a hint of grapefruit. Light smokiness and chewy caramel. Rich, slick mouthfeel. The sweetness was too much by the end of the bottle.

Chalky charred oak, medium roast coffee nose. Black, thin beige head. Milk chocolate flavor, raisin hints, coffee on the back end. Won’t blow you away, but a real pleasure to drink.

Nice big black oily stout presentation in the glass with tan sizzling foam inside but not on top. Smell is a little sweet like some impy stouts, some choco in the background. Taste is flat dark chocolate with a backbone of old burned campfire wood from yesterday, damp from a rain. Has a decent amout of co2 for such a high alky stout. Godd personality holds its foothold even tho it strarted out slow. Roma becomes a tad cloying. Finish is same as session, lingering unsweetened dark choco, going on for a while. Interesting dull stout overall effect.
