Black color with brown head. Aroma of roasted caramel, coffee, dark fruits, and alcohol. Same combination in the taste with a touch of Belgian yeast. Smooth, roasted bitterness in the aftertaste. A good brew, but at some stage, the presence of alcohol shows up too much.

On draught.
Tan head, no lacing.
Roasted malt, dark chocolate, caramel.
The Belgian Abby yeast imparts some pleasant, subtle and enjoyable flavors.
Decent mouthfeel, a little boozy.
Tangy/boozy, slight carbonation tickle on the finish.

Black with a tiny tan head. Pleasant aroma:caramel, cinnamon, ripe fruit. Slightly bitter & salty. Flavors: everything the nose detected plus alcohol,spice & smoke. Feel: a bit thin with excellent carbonation plenty of alcohol to warm & tingle the tongue. Overall: very good.

Poured at fridge temp. Pours jet black with a relatively thin layer of head. The nose is excellent. Malt balls, milk chocolate, slight note of burnt wood in a fire pit, light coffee, and a hint of black licorice.
The taste is fantastic. Mild sweetness, milk chocolate, roasted malts, dark German bread, charred wood, dark roasted coffee grounds, almonds, black licorice, and a mild smokey note.
This is such a well done stout. The mouthfeel is fairly thick and dry. The aftertaste is coffee grounds and roasted malts. I would love to compare this to a Belgian-style stout from Belgium.

The pour is matte black with a beige head of foam. The taste is rich roasted malt, spices maybe some cinnamon & coriander, brown sugar. Cheers! A-

Look: jet black with almost no head
Smell: mild aromas of roasted malt and something that I can't quite find the words for but is definitely reminiscent of Belgian quads and dark strong ales. Very mild overall, though.
Taste: follows the nose in both notes and mildness. There is a dry bitterness that is a bit unexpected in such a dark stout. Perhaps the widespread availability of barrel-aged beers has ruined me, but this just comes across as too mild and lacking in complexity to excite me.
Feel: nothing remarkable, a bit thin for the ABV but not bad.
Overall: I know this is an extremely well-regarded beer, but it just doesn't do it for me. It's not bad and I would drink it again if it were offered to me, but it's not something I would spend time or money seeking out.
