12 ounce bottle. Opaque black brown color. Frothy tan head. Roasted malt aroma is redolent of roasted coffee. Tangy roasted malt flavor has big coffee notes throughout. Medium bodied. To borrow from Nimbleprop, there is a hint of Charleston Chew on the palate. Lacking the creaminess you would expect of an Oatmeal Stout. Interesting at best.

12 ounce bottle. Amber orange pour. Massive rocky beige head. Good lacing eventually shows. Spicy toasted malt aroma. Toasted malt flavor. Notes of caramel and resiny pine. Some earthy malt in the long bitter finish.

Bottle. A- Musty, dank, chalky, pine, floral, citrus. A- Orange color, cloudy liquid, off white head. T- Floral, pine, bitter, citrus, catty. P- Medium body, average texture, average carbonation, soapy finish. O- The floral comes across as very musty and catty with a heavy dose of piney bitterness. IPA fans from back when would enjoy this, I do not.

12oz bottle via trade, the bottle is filled right to the cap. Pours a watery dark brown with plenty of fluffy tan head. Nose has malt, toast, Charleston Chew, some sweetened coffee, a little rootbeer barrel. Flavors of malt and toffee, very old school because the barley is really the star, the coffee is there with some bitterness and body to help off set the maltiness, marzipan, nougat. Finishes medium bodied, just barely off dry. Well made.

Pour is a decent black with a monster tan head. Aroma is pretty much all bitter bakers chocolate with a nice roasted malt. Flavor is more of the same. Bitter bakers chocolate is way up front this a nice roast and char is left on the tongue. NIce stout. Not much of the coffee came out but the base beer is real nice.
