Very potent, like all Magic Hat brews, and that demo noshed the characteristic smoothness a stout like this should have. Does not pair well with any menu, best served as a stand alone drink or an after-dinner brew.

Bitter. Unpleasant, uncomplex flavor of strong, bitter chicory with first sip, which mellows further in/with warmth, but still subsists. Not a fan of that flavor, and not much more to flavor palate. Drinkable though. 12 oz bottle purchased 12/2012.

Nothing really wrong with it, but nothing exciting. It's a very smooth stout, nothing adventures. If I wanted to introduce somebody to stouts this would probably be a good place to start but I see no reason to go out of my way for this beer. If its all that's available it's a nice beer to drink though.

Easy drinking Stout for those that aren't sure of dark beers. Not too rich with coffee or chocolate. Middle of the road stout.
