Draft - Sweet and dark fruity notes. Cloudy dirty brown with a small beige head. Over ripe apple and some raisin. Sweet and fruity.

16 oz can at Safeco courtesy of running into an old friend. Small world it is, and I’m surprised more and more each day. Copper brown color. Sweet malt heavy aroma. Flavor is very sweet, overly rich caramel malt, and some chocolate. Malt bomb is an understatement. It’s always fun to have a beer that I’ve seen around for several years, but never gave it a full try. Harsh sweetness, and less my type of stout, but good qualities.

Draft at AK BW fest 2016. Hazy maroon color, big beige head, solid lacing. Aroma of burnt toast. Taste is sweet toasted malt.

Bottle from Albertsons. This ones all over the place, like pinkzambia said, lots of different elements of lots of different styles. Yes, its black, head a bit thin for a stout. Tons of sweetness, mostly malt, some candy. Then there?s a smidge of bitterness, equal parts roast grains and hops. So they admit it?s a sweet, malt bomb, and that?s what we get. Definitely not for everyone?s palate. Later warming brings out lots of doppelbock

On tap at the 12th Man Club. Pours a clear dark brown with a grayish brown head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has lots of sweet dark grains with a sweet chocolate and a bit of bread. Flavor has lots of sweet dark grains as a touch of chocolate and toffee underlying.

Bottle on June 28, 2015. From a FredMeyers in Portland, Oregon.Hazy dark brown color, tan head. Sweet, roasted, malty scent. Malty sweet, fruity taste. Fruity aftertaste. Medium mouthfeel, low bitterness.

On draft at The Raven Grill in Gardiner MT. Pours black with a tan head. Smoky roast nose. Flavored of licorice and leather. Bitter finish.

Dark brown with a light tan, creamy head. Roasted aroma, light cooa, earthy. Finishes bittersweet with lingering earthy hops. Medium bodied. Decent.

Robert brought this one back from a trip to Portland. +++ Sampled from a 22 oz brown bottle this beer gushed a black color with an enormous beige head that lingered and left a bit of lacing. The aroma was cherry, raisin, malt and a bit of licorice. The flavor was cherry, plum, raisin, molasses and licorice. Medium length cherry and raisin finish. Medium body though overcarbonated. Interesting.

On my way home from Hangar on the wharf, I picked up a howler of this from Breeze In, Juneau, AK.
I poured this into a pint glass.
The appearance is an extremely dark brown close to black color with a decent amount of an off white foamy lacing trying to grace the sides of the glass but slide for the most part.
The smell tried to have the milky sweet chocolates and roasty coffee to somewhat vanilla-ness up front, but for the most part, there’s a ton of dark fruits in the front as well. I don’t mind it, but it just does seem a little weird for the \"milk/sweet stout\" style. Anyways, I shall proceed.
The taste was pretty much the same even as it warmed. There is a quick sweet chocolate to dark fruit aftertaste with a long dry and somewhat butery finish.
On the palate, it sits a moderately light to medium and has a very extreme sessionable quality to it. Amazingly enough, I’m trying to figure out how sessionable a \"milk/sweet stout\" can be, well, Iron Horse did it. The carbonation has got to be one of the smoothest of any \"milk/sweet stouts\" I’ve ever had, weird, but its almost as if its too smooth.
Overall, this beer is so smooth it almost makes one think is this really a \"milk/sweet stout?\" As I know it did that for me. I’d have this again and would love to have it with some lemon meringue pie.
