500ml bottle from Garthicus, Thanks Al! Nose of coffee, licorice, chocolate, and a light hoppy note; Black as hell with a small tan head; flavor is coffee, chocolate, light hop bitterness, and a molasses note. Finish is chocolate and light hop bitterness. Compares well to a lot of America Impys but with more of an Irish Guinness-like molassesy note.

Bitter for a dry stout, but still solid and enjoyable. Fizzy light brown head above a dark, opaque body. The heavy aroma presents smells of roasted and burnt malts, molasses, coffe, smoke and hops. The flavor is lightly sweet, heaviy acidic and moderate to heavily bitter. Very dry and somewhat chalky finish. Medium body.

Courtesy of Degarth. Pours black with explosive rocky mocha head and crazy sheet lacing. The aroma has a moment of roasty to burnt malts before a big malted-fig-cotton-ball smell rears up. Odd. The taste starts with mild dark fruitiness from figs, dates and prunes before roasty, mild chocolate malts, malt balls, some vanilla and burnt malts join the fray. Yum. It ends with mostly malt notes and some rich dark chocolate.
