"Pours a very dark mahagony that verges on black. The tan head builds easily and fades slow enough to get noticed. The aroma is like charcoal and chocolate. Very porter like. The coal/roasty character carries into the flavor and that part lingers into the finish while the overcooked chocolate cake thickens up the middle. Good carbonation and a nice dark lager that isn’t far from a porter except for the whole yeast issue."

"Black brew which shows a ruby heart when held to the light. Good roasted nose. Light body which is a slight let down. Good malty flavor, decent doppel. Hoped for more."

[3] Review by canandaigua75 from Newfield, NY, USA who has tried this beer once. (7/30/2005 11:19:10 AM)
"Stoudt's brews are always fun to try. This one had a beautiful light tan coloring with lots of foam action on the top. The aroma was slightly sweet. The taste was smooth and refreshing and also a faint sweetness. There was just a hint of an aftertaste."
