pepsican (727), the beer wastelands of, Iowa, USA Aug 31, 2008 growler from iowaherkeye. Black pour with a thin tan head. Huge chocolate aroma. Flavor was bitter chocolate, cola, caramel, black malts. Lightly bitter finish. wcampbell (419), Lewisburg, Pennsylvania, USA Aug 30, 2008 Draft. Surprisingly good. Super rich flavor that makes guiness taste like water. Lightly dry malt flavor of chocolate and roasted malts. Light carbonation and highly drinkable. Creamy, smooth, and full bodied. Light nutty aroma. JPDIPSO (4233), Wauwatosa, Wisconsin, USA Aug 30, 2008 Thanks to my SS for this bottled growler - very nice effort - Thanks! Dark brown pour with a moderate mocha head. Sweet aromas, with dark chocolate, lightly roasted malt, ash, creosote, some dark fruits and coffee. Lightly silky feel that thins out with some of the acidity in this one. Dark chocolate, french roast coffee, and some almond bark in the flavors. Finish is rather quick, but the linger is long with roasted malts. Some hints of dms throw thing off. Collint (325), Sylva, North Carolina, USA Aug 10, 2008 Draft at the taproom in Ashville. Black beer with a giant tan head. Lacing down the whole glass. Aroma is roast and chocolate. Flavor is a smooth taste of roast coffee and a bitter bite of chocolate in the hoppy finish. Great beer! lightning9191 (58), Christiansburg, Virginia, USA Aug 9, 2008 This jet black beer seems unbalanced to me. There is just something not right about it. I think there is something up with the grain bill.
