Fairly dark. Aroma is lightly chocolate, taste is on the sweeter side- oats?- with a hit of cocoa bitterness.

Draught at the brewery
Very dark color, almost black, but with mahogany shades, small head. The aroma is too mild, some roasted malt. The flavor is quite surprising, very rich; it combines roasted malts, biscuity hints, dark chocolate, roasted nuts, and a touch of cake, not without some rye and bread qualities; solid bitterness, it seems to have some resiny hops too.
Very nice.

Nice jet black body with no real head. Aroma of sweet barley, sharp in places, but nothing more. Very sharp barley flavour with plenty of bitterness. Slightly watery on the mouth. Not much to write home about here.

On tap at Powell Street, pours jet black with a medium tan head and a slight red tinge. Aroma brings out lots of roasted malt upfront, followed by dry cocoa powder. Flavour is robust, with huge notes of roasted malt upfront, followed by some dark chocolate. Really lovely robustness to this, with a thick, chewy body. Love stouts like this. Excellent.

Draft - Dark roast and nice hoppy notes with chocolate. Jet black with a decent light brown head. Dark chocolate, roasty notes and s nice sweet bitterness. Well done and hops do well here.
