You hold in your hand a stout for stout lovers. Buried Hatchet is brewed with a large quantity of brown malt reminiscent of a traditional pre-Industrial Revolution malt profile. This stout is full of robust, roasted flavors which intermingle with a bittersweet creaminess that concludes to a perfect, warming finish. [Moving from stout to RIS given the high abv above 8% -GT2]

Thanks to crajun for this one! Black pour with a small tan head. Aroma of roast malt, coffee, chocolate. The flavor has coffee, some bitterness from dark roasted malts but overall neither sweet nor bitter dominates. Smooth with some dryness in the finish. Nice.

(Thanks Jay "GodOfThunder") Can. A- Nutella, toast, chocolate, nutty, coffee. A- Black color, black liquid, minimal head. T- Nutella, chocolate, roasty, coffee, semi bitter cocoa, mocha, cola, slightly malty. P- Full body, average texture, soft carbonation, dry bittersweet finish. O- An excellent stout that could stand up again a lot of others similar to it. Very robust, rich, and complex. With the strong toast and chocolate and nut aromas, alongside the tastes, this reminded me of Nutella on toast for breakfast. Just a good beer all around.

Can thanks to GodofThunder: Poured a dark brown with whispery white head. Aroma was roasted malts. Taste was milky, very silky on the palate with chocolate and just enough roasted malts to provide a backbone.

D & Q Beer Mart, Houston 4-pack: Pours black with a light brown head that sticks around. Aroma is dark chocolate with an ample amount of roast and some dark coffee. Body is light considering that this beer is 8.25% abv. Nice roasty bitterness all in the taste. Light sweetness. Some nuttiness. Overall quite tasty

Rich deep dark brown body with a nice one centimetre tall tan head. Aroma of coffee, rich chocolate, light earthy spices and a bit of nuts - especially pecans. Medium-bodied; Strong rich earthy malts with a lot of depth and a ton of nut flavours. Aftertaste shows a good depth with cacao, rich coffee, earthy malt and a good nutty finish, all with some smooth pit fruit finishes. Overall, a nice and robust stout with some good earthiness and a smooth malty finish, all with some solid sweetness and bitterness from coffee and chocolate. I sampled this twelve ounce can purchased from Total Wine in Palm Beach Gardens on 30-December-2013 for US$2.29 sampled in my hotel room here in Clearwater, Florida on 03-January-2014.

On tap at Yard House Houston. A dense, finger thick beige head sits on top of a dark brown to black body. Nice curtains. The aroma is pretty roasted, with nuts, spent coffee grit and hints of bonfire. Hot tarmac too actually. It’s pretty dry on the palate, with a pleasant carbonation level. Lots of roasted malts in the flavor. Coffee, bonfire notes and some dark chocolate too. Pleasant bitterness towards the finish. A beer that I could repeat, no doubt, even though I find it a bit one dimensional. 131111

Location: Can at Prego Italian Restaurant, 8/27/13
Aroma: The nose is roasted coffee and chocolate malts mostly
Appearance: Pours a dark brown color with a medium sized head and some good lace
Flavor: The taste is much the same, roasty and a little sweet, with minimal bitterness
Palate: The body is medium, it has a fairly creamy feel, and a roasty finish
Overall Impression: I thought this was a pretty solid example of a roasted coffee and chocolate stout. it isn't a standout beer, but it feels well made enough...

12oz can. Poured a dark brown color with a tan head. Aroma was some roasted malts, chocolate character is here. Flavor was a lot of roasted malt notes, sweetness, nice notes of some earthy hops. Alcohol not too bad for 8.25% - wouldn’t mind checking this one out a bit more sober next time.
