May 4, 2008 Tap @ Barley’s Taproom - An ok beer. It doesn’t do much. It’s one of those, "Lets put them down" type of beers.

Nov 12, 2007 Draught. Pours dark brown with attractive beige head. The aroma is rich with caramel and toffee, some sweetish spice notes. The flavor is also rich caramel, with some nut and licorice tones in there. Toasty notes pop up here and there, too. The finish is slightly dry and earthy. Not bad.

Mar 2, 2007 Draught. Pours brown with a decent tan head. The nose is sweet and very bready with light caramel notes. This isn’t as sweet in the flavor, but slightly nutty and earthy. There is a mild coffee presence with hints of cola and a finish like soy sauce. This is like a lighter stout as far as flavor goes. Pretty decent.
