Appearance - Thick creamy head, good retention, good lace. Deep brown color, almost opaque.

Smell - Subdued malt aroma. I'm guessing maybe the thick head is keeping the smells trapped.

Taste - Outstanding choclatey flavor. It also has the characeristic stout roastiness. Hops must certainly be present, but I was distracted by the choclatey flavor. Very tasty.

Mouthfeel - Thick and smooth, creamy. The beer is dry, and has a crisp finish reminscent of some English ales brewed with hard water.

Drinkability - I could easily put away more than a few pints of this stuff.

Comments - This beer is a must-try for any stout lover. Stylistically, I'm guessing this beer would receive very good scores if judged by a BJCP judge.
