750mL bottle, courtesy of wickedpete. Thanks, Pete! Pours a clear, dark cola-brown color; light tan head with solid retention and fine-bubbled lacing. Full, chocolatey nose: nougat, lively citrus, and doughy malts; pretty nice aroma. Medium-to-full mouthfeel: cola, nuttiness, and dried fruits; very crisp, lively, and drinkable; really nice rendition; robust and solidly bitter. Lengthy finish: cola, chocolate, and toasty maltiness.

This bottled brew from West Lakeview Liquors in Chicago had a corked marked 2007. It poured a very large sized head of mostly diminishing tan colored finely sized bubbles that left behind a transparent dark red brown softly colored body and a thick foamy lacing. The aroma was nice with chocolate malty notes. The mouth feel was mild at the start with a slightly stronger dark malty finish. The flavor was smooth and on the thin carbonated side with mild chocolate and brown malts.
