"Pours black with a light brown head. Aroma is light at first (served a little to cold) with more roast malt aroma as it warms. Tastes of sweet coffee flavor, similar to mocha. Finishes dry leaving a desire for more. Flavors are more substantial as it warms. One of the better stouts in the area. "

"This beer features a light roast aroma. I would like them to ramp this up a touch more. Pours pitch black with light brown creamy head. Dark chocolate and esspresso notes are the overriding flavors, and finishes with a very nice roast and hop bitterness. Medium to light body. Brewery’s most popular for good reason.
