Aug 18, 2003 Dark brown with red highlights. Smells musty, somewhat like coffee and alcohol. Mild, somewhat rancid flavor of old vegetables mixed with coffee. One dimensional, and not offering much.

Jul 16, 2006 Pours a deep mahogany with a bubbly light brown head. The aroma is roasted malt & barley and dark caramel. Tastes both sweet and roasted, and then a rusty feel takes over, finishing on a bitter, metallic note that ruins the drink. <font size=-4><a href=http://www.ratebeer.com/Places/ShowPlace.asp?

Oct 30, 2002 Dark mohogany brown with a two-tone tan and off white head. Brown sugar, with a touch of dark malt aroma. A mix between a lager, a dry stout and a weak bock. Faint hints at a brown porter. Just a fairly bland dark beer.

Feb 23, 2005 12 oz bottle. Near-black walnut color with a big but speedily decaying brown head...minimal roasty/lightly sweet nose offers a bit of expression late but remains weak....mostly bitter, dry and roasty flavors with a touch of toffee, somewhat cardboardy finish, reasonably full. By the end of the bottle I was enjoying this a fair bit, but it’s quite forgettable a moment after the glass is empty.
