Bottle. Pours deep ruby black with a medium creamy brown head and nice lacing on the glass. Aroma is lactose sugars, roasted malts, cofee, cocoa. Flavor is cocoa - a bit artificial tasting, roasty, lactose. Medium body, creamy mouthfeel, lingering bitterness. Good.

Bottle - thanks to beernbourbon! Pours hazy orange with a very large puffy off-white, slightly pale orange head that lasts a long time and laces well, if a bit clumpy. Aroma is dank, citrus, tropical, cat piss. Flavor has definite sweetness, some pineapple and mango flavors apparent. Medium bitter, but not harsh. A bit of an almost candy-like note in the initial stages. Medium body, creamy mouthfeel, some ABV burn. Pretty nice beer.

Purchased at Bottles and Cans in Chicago, IL; enjoyed at home prior to hanging out with my cousin. Overall not bad. Appearance is a rather clear gold with a thin white rim. Aroma of flowers and light spice. Taste of honey, light malt, light spice, light yeast. Overall it’s light and pretty flavorful. Good stuff.

(Thanks Peter "russellcrow") Bottle. A- Coffee, cocoa, tobacco, doughy, roasty. A- Black color, black liquid, tan head. T- Cocoa, bitter chocolate, malty, coffee, mocha. P- Full body, thin texture, medium carbonation, dry finish. O- This beer was a pain in the ass. So much head that I poured nothing but head, continually for almost an hour before I managed to get the whole beer into the glass. It’s a solid sweet stout with more coffee than chocolate flavor in my opinion, but it’s not worth the time it takes to pour. Something had to be up with this bottle.

Bottle courtesy of a traveling friend. Sweet orange, buttery caramel, and spicy resinous sprucy hops aroma. Clear amber with a large ivory head. Resinous woody piney hops (almost like sawdust - in a good way), slightly sweet bready caramel malt flavor. Medium body, average carbonation. Nice and hoppy with a good solid malt backbone.

Purchased at Bottles and Cans in Chicago, IL; enjoyed after a productive day while watching baseball. Appearance is dark brown with a thin white head that rims around the glass, looks like a nutty oatmeal porter. Aroma of chocolate malt, hazelnut, light carbonation, smell is nice. Taste is pretty good, definitely can taste the nutty elements and is candy bar like without being too sweet. Pretty good stuff.

Refrigerated brown bomber from BMart poured into a trappist glass. Pours slightly hazy golden with small white head which dissipates quickly. Aroma is slightly tart wheat, light body, medium carbonation which dies very quickly, and little lacing. Taste is tart soft wheat. Expected more flavor.
