Draft - Nice roast, mellow with some chocolate. Deep jet brown with a decent brown head. Bitter sweet chocolate and some light roast. Easy drinking and flavourful.

Sampled from the tap at the 2010 MBG Fall Fest. Poured black with a deep brown head that dissipated to the edges. Aroma was full of cream and roasted malts that balanced nicely. Flavor began with a sweet cream note with a sweet roasted malt finish and a bit of sweet chocolate to round out the beer.

On tap at the restaurant. Deep brown body, thin buff head. Aroma of milk chocolate and roasted malt with appropriate sweetness for the style. Creamy body dominated by roasted malt, chocolate, and unfermented sugars. Fairly simple.

Sample at the brewpub: This brew is a flat black color with a medium creamy beige head that is gone pretty fast. Small blobs of lacing race down the sides of the glass. Roasted coffee and malt aroma. Medium-bodied with a smooth texture. Malt and coffee flavors dominate, and there is some dark chocolate behind it all. The finish is soft and sweet, with just a bit of coffee on the back end. Not a medal-winner in my book but pretty good.

Business in Flint gave me a chance to do a “pubcrawl across Michigan.” Had to make this my first stop when I saw this beer was a 2003 GABF Gold Medalist.
Yes! Creamy and roasty, not oily at all. Despite a good coffee flavor, the taste is somehow “light.” Its dark stout head just seems to add to the chewy texture. Worth the trip to discover this roomy brewpub/restaurant. (Additionally: The pub lists this beer as having 30 IBU's).
