Bottle, pours a nice dark red color with a light head. Nice darker flavor notes a bit of tannic properties add a nice dryness to the brew. Light hops a bit fruity but very pleasant and easy to drink.

Pours with four finger cream head that fades slowly leaves a good lace. Clear deep amber color. Light earthy nose. Medium carbonation and medium bodied. Flavor is nearly balanced but hops win, some initial sweetness. Hop bite at finish that lingers. 500ml bottle from Barb’s Beer Emporium Concord, NH.

Pours a mahogony colour with a nice sized head. Aroma has a lot of dehydrated banana. Some coffee in there as well with dark chocolate, and vanilla. Tastes pretty nice, more dehydrated banana with chocolate and roast coffee, nutty notes, vanilla, and some metallic notes. Carbonation is decent. This beer is an interesting mix of sweet and bitter. I like it.
