| 2.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 9/20 | Oct 14, 2009 On tap at the Union Station locale. Pours an unclear reddish amber with very little head (due to the idiot pouring), but there is some okay lacing from what remains. Aroma is roasty, nutty, cocoa. Taste is incredibly sweet, lots of cloying alcohol, artificial cherry syrup. Overall sort of medicinal, syrupy, unbalanced, and poorly executed. Dansting (222), Overland Park, Kansas, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Oct 9, 2007 From a growler. Poured a slightly cloudy purplish brown color with a thin, white head. Aroma of instant coffee. Flavor is pretty malty with a touch of caramel and maple to it. Finish is almost smoky. A decent offering. Holdwine (909), Beertimore, Maryland, USA
| 2.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 9/20 | Mar 17, 2005 Brackish looking. No real aroma. Big mouthfeel, yet antiseptic in nature. Follows with an offputting sweetness. Strange (and not in a good way) brew. argo0 (7029), Washington DC, USA
