A thanks to the incredible woodychandler for this beer. Poured from a 12 oz. can. Has a black color with a 1/2 inch head. Smell is of dark malts. Taste is dark malts, some chocolate and a bit of smokiness. Feels medium.full bodied in the mouth and overall is a decent beer.

Good use of milk sugars. Tastes better on tap. The can version seems to have a mildly off after taste. Sadly another locally made microbrew that is priced too high.

This is the beer that got me off the "I don't like dark beers" train.
It's almost pitch-black, malty, with plenty of chocolate and more than sweet enough. Very easy-drinking and just plain tasty.

Dark brown body topped with a thick, frothy and sticky light tan head; rings of foam circling the glass. The smell contains rich elements of sweet chocolate and cocoa with some charred grain notes. Gently sweet flavors of cocoa and chocolate dominate the taste with some low-key grain husk and hop bitterness in the background. Heavy body; smooth and silky with a nice sweetness on the palate.
A well-made classic stout styling, balanced and flavorful and very easy drinking.

Pours a clear but deep dark brown with a tan cap that recedes fairly quickly leaving decent lacing. Aroma is roasted dark malt. Flavor is the same roasted dark malt with hints of sweet chocolate and lactose. The feel is medium thick with adequate carbonation. Overall a decent enough milk stout but nothing special.
