| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | May 28, 2008 Pours black/brown with a small, fizzy light brown head. Smells of sweet caramel, toffee, and mild roast. Sweet smelling. The flavor is of graham crackers, licorice, and caramel malt. Tastes a bit organic, if that has a taste, but overall drinks pretty nice. medium-bodied, but pretty full on flavor. Not bad, better than I was expecting actually. EithCubes (2176), Indiana, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | May 27, 2008 Bottle. Slightly sweet, slightly sour aroma, woody with caramel, dust, yeast, toffee, and strong toast and roast. Dark brown (black) pour with a short light brown head. Taste is crisp and dry, toasty and roasty with very faint sugar cane, faint bitter licorice. Nuts with a touch of ash. Chocolate with a fluttering orange citrus. Very dry, earthy aftertaste, with subtle parfait fruitiness floating in the deep bg. Medium body. Very drinkable, balanced and fun! after4ever (2840), Brier, Washington, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 5/5 | 14/20 | May 27, 2008 12-oz. Pours black with a towering, fluffy tan head. Minimal lace. Cocoa, dust, and roast on the nose. Medium, creamy body, a bit on the dry side. Soft carb, not much of it, either. Cocoa, roast, and dust return for the mid-palate. Nice nutty graininess as well. I am a bit of a pushover for the nuttiness and fullness of these og beers, and this one has them in spades. A worthy little effort, if rather forgettable. BuckeyeBoy (1696), Boise, Idaho, USA
