Hank1980 (732), Athens, Georgia, USA Feb 3, 2009 Cask from Atlanta Cask Ale Tasting. Pours deep brown with a small tan head. Aroma of big coffee, roasted malts. Taste is similar, with tons of coffee. While fairly straightforward, this is very enjoyable and well done. Mouth is smooth and creamy. Body is full. Very nice.
