Pours thick and dark as night with minimal head...roasty smell with no noticeable fruitiness...tastes of bitter coffee up front with a wonderful chocolate covered raspberry finish

Sample at TJ's Thanks
Toasty earthy light chocolate and molasses on the nose, Huge raspberry flavor that wasn't on the nose. Coffee lightly peppery. Tasty but not world class.

L: Poured from a bottle to a pint glass. Had a dark brown / black color and a thick, opaque consistency. There was a half inch of creamy, tan-colored, long-lasting head. Below average lacing.
S: A very enticing aroma of raspberries, truffles, coffee, and chocolate.
T: Tasted of small amount of roasted malt (mostly in the finish), a good shot of truffles (quite earthy), a ton of raspberries, a lot of chocolate and some coffee as well. This is basically dessert in a bottle. It's fruity, chocolatey, and incredibly sweet. Very well-balanced, but the raspberries stand out more than anything. Tasty.
F: An average amount of carbonation with a super smooth finish. Medium- to full-bodied.
O: An excellent and enjoyable stout. Well worth a look.

Pours an effervescent ebony with a pinky of a mocha colored head. Below average head retention & lacing
S: Coffee, a little raspberry, coffee really picks up as this warms
T: Follows the nose, a touch of truffle, but plenty of dryness & raspberry tartness up front. Coffee thins out, rasberry tartness picks up not really working for me . Finisihes with raspberry tartness, a little truffle & & touch of watery coffee
MF: Medium body, moderate carbonation. Body thins as this warms, carbonation becomes a little too sharp
Thought I would love this, wheels just kind of fall off as it warmed, ABV seems MIA

Very nice stout. Strong raspberry nose and finish, definitely abundant cocoa and coffee flavors between. Slightly astringent, balanced well overall.
