A- burnt toast, leather
A-black, minimal head, tan foam
T-lightly bitter, lacking any depth of flavor, quick finish
P- medium body, thin feel, lively, abrupt finish
O- unimpressed. I recognize that this is a session stout, but that doesnt mean you need to cut the flavour. Maybe stouts shouldnt be sessioned.

Draught dimple mug pint at the brewpub. Brown-black and oily looking, nice tan to light brown head. Mild aroma - roast and oil, a little coffee and dark choc - not too sweet. Taste follows, really well balanced - oilier with pretty much no alcohol. Slick, fairly thick, mildly carbonated, quick finishing with a hint of soy in the slightly acidic coffee finish. Nice drinker!

3.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20 Spab (2888) - Toronto, Ontario, CANADA - MAR 29, 2014
650 ml bottle from brewery. Pours an ultra dark brown with good-sized, creamy brown head. Aroma is quite roasty with dark chocolate and a subtler coffee note. Flavour is also full of roastiness with dark, slightly bitter chocolate, coffee and a very gentle fruitiness. Creamy mouthfeel. Very drinkable and full of flavour despite the apparent 4.5% ABV.
3.8 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20 JoeMcPhee (9004) - Toronto, ON, Ontario, CANADA - MAR 17, 2014
Bomber from the brewery. Pitch black pour with a creamy dark brown head. The nose is great - intense cocoa roastiness and a little bit of soft sweet fudgey character. Medium-full bodied. There is a touch of savoury roastiness as well as a little bit of light blackberry. Lingering dark malts and some nice cocoa. Theres a lot of malt complexity through the middle of this one and has a nice sweet chewy finish.
