Dec 8, 2008 Dark caramel color, bordering black, with an average light brown head. Spicy hop aroma with slight cocoa powder bite. Grapefruit and peach notes as well. Nicely hopped flavor, some chicory coffee notes in finish. Nice balance of roast and bitter hoppiness.

Oct 13, 2008 From tap. It comes a dark ruby color, thin off white head. The aroma is very roasted, some chocolate and a slight sourness from the hops. Flavor is bitter from the malt, roasted coffee flavor is pretty prevalent and chocolate flavor pulls up the end. Hops flavoring is very faint and at the end. A solid beer from a great brewery.

Oct 6, 2008 Draught @ brewpub: This one pours a fairly opaque dark brown color. There was a good thick 1 finger tan head on it. The aroma was good. Lots of malts, but not sweet. There were hints of roastiness, chocolate and coffee as well as caramel. The taste is very similar. It is a bit roasty, with a subdued malt sweetness. Also notes of chocolate and coffee. Very drinkable.
