Oct 17, 2009 Bottle. Pours a dark, clear color with a large, frothy white head. Aromas of chocolate, toasted malts, and some black liquorice. Initial mouthfeel is creamy, stay creamy and then finishes with a sticky end. Flavors are toasted malts and then a very bitter finish. Okay beer, but the finish is tough to get past.

Poured an opaque deep brown color with a cream tan head. Roasted malt aroma with notes of dark chocolate, carob raisins and tobacco leaf. Earthy and citrus hop notes mix through. Mix of citrus and dark roasted malt. Bitter finish with a decent length seems to be from the hop not the roast. Medium bodied.
