*did not mind would not buy*

app: deep dark garnet blood black mix, tan head that is bout 2 fingers good.

smell: nice roasty toasty smell small pinch of dirty nickles.

taste: metalic watery with rich roasty flavor back drop, this is no good. you want no metalic or water but they seem to lead the parade. nice finish though, i will give it that.

mf: to thin and bright.

drinkable?: eh, not very much.

where is the balance and quality control?

I bought this as a single since it was fairly cheap and I havent seen this before, the label caught my eye but also expect it to be quality despite the ABV!

A: Pours a dark motor oil black, with a thin mocha colored head and not much lacing to speak of but there is some.

S: Aroma gives off some dark roasted malts, chocolate notes, and a blend of coffee and caramel. Awesome smell to this beer and especially sweeter than bitter.

T: Strong coffee flavor, mixed with hints of caramel is what I get in the initial flavor. Beer blends into a sweet chocolate and dark fruit combination that finishes with a dry, bread or nutty dryness.

M: Mouth has a sweet texture and not overly bitter. All the components for a good stout are there.

O: This is a session stout and is delicious at that. Lacks the ABV of a trophy type stout, but it doesnt matter because now instead of having 2 glasses of a bomber, you can have 6 beers of this and be straight!
