EDIT: I saw some of these again today and took a closer look at the bottle. The bottle says, clear as day, that it's a Dark Mild Ale, not a Stout. This explains a few things right off the bat. Regardless, it is still a lousy brew and the following review still stands.

APPEARANCE: Pours pitch black, pretty opaque as well. No head at all. A few big bubbles at the top, but it's certainly not a beer head whatsoever. Looks like a kid blew bubbles in his juice through a straw. Looks very flat with no carbonation evident. A slight bit of off-white film lines around the edges of the glass, but that's the only thing stopping me from thinking it's dark juice.

SMELL: Some roasted malt, but not much. Scent is dominated by sweet fruit, like dried fruit and apples perhaps. Smells closer to a white wine or maybe even cider, but not like a stout beer. Certainly not the roasted barley malt and chocolate as advertised.

TASTE: Again, a slight bit of roasted malt, but is dominated by that sweet apple inspired fruity wine taste. Too sweet of an aftertaste to be enjoyable. Doesn't taste like beer. No real sign of the roasted barley malt and chocolate it advertises. Gets old fast. Dumped it half way though. This was my first dump.

FEEL: Again, very bad. Basically no carbonation at all makes it feel like water. Body is very light and thin. Water. It goes down fine, mostly because there's nothing to it, and it's slightly sticky, which is fine, but it's just not beer.

OVERALL: This was the worst beer I've had in my little beer travels thus far. It was difficult to finish because the taste was just too sweet like bad apple juice. It certainly wasn't a stout, and didn't taste at all like it was advertised. It also felt like water or wine, but not beer. I definately never want to drink this again.

Obtained from the Pitfield's Beer Shop, London. BB APR 07, served cool in a goblet.

A: deeply dark-brown to black hue with some reddish hints, while the beer head is quite thin and loosely-foamy with o.k. retention. A very "smooth-looking" pint in front of me.
S: juicy and semi-sweet dark malts prevail from the first second onwards, consisting of chocolate-milk, dried longan-fruits, with a touch of toffee and faint roastiness. Utterly smooth and pleasant, fruity-malty as a mild as much as lightly-roasty as a weaker stout.
T: unidentifiable wood-sprig's bitterness gradually follows an initial flow of light-bodied roasted maltiness with a vinous fruity hint; the more-pronounced-than-the-aroma roastiness mingles well with a good amount of earthy hops, causing a lingering, dryish and slightly-tannic mouthfeel of woody and roasted bitterness at the back of the throat.
M&D: extremely smooth on the mouthfeel but the body is just too light to my liking and the texture is slightly watery. Yet overall it's brewed to be a quaffable stout I reckon, and the end result is a light session stout highlighting the subtle but lingering bitter aftertaste, which is the key generator of more thirst. Should be even better on cask~~
