Commercial Description:
A well balanced medium bodied dark ale. A smooth chocolate and roast malt flavor backed with a healthy amount of East Kent Golding hops. Don't be afraid of the dark, give this one a try!

Black with dark crimson edges. The aroma is full & roast with dark malts, light black patent & apparent fragrant hops. The flavor is charred with some sweetness & astringent black malts. The finish is creamy, smooth.

Dark brown/mahogany with a light creamy head. Roast and chocolate malt aromas. Bitter hops. Bitter roast flavors, some smoke, chocolate and coffee. Medium body and a bitter roasted finish.

Chocolate color. Mild coffee tones and lightly bittered. OK, but another boring attempt.

Some brown light around a mostly black body. Dark chocolate and coffee in the aroma. Somewhat thick, gritty and with a big chocolate malt presence. Very roasty and robust. Other than some bad wheat characteristics in the aroma, I enjoyed this.
