Jul 24, 2007 Dark color. Smell of hops, coco, malt, roasted coffee and pepper. Taste of roasted coffee, malt, hops, pine, pepper, rye, bitter chocloate, caramel and a nice spicey bitterness at the end.

Jul 21, 2007 For the life of me I couldn’t detect the chemical tinge in the aroma like Joebrew. What I did get was rich roasted chocolate malts with plenty of rye goodness. Deep brown color dark enough to be black with a creamy light brown head. Roasted malt body with chocolate, coffee and a nice rye bite to it and some hops floating about for good measure.

Jul 21, 2007 Thanks to brewfiend for sharing. Pours a nice deep dark brown tinged black, with a nice medium tan head. Kinda odd aroma that reminds me of Windex, as well as some chocolate, rye and roasted malt. Beautiful flavor of dark roast coffee, chocoloate, a hint of that delicious rye character, medium floral hops, and a hint of smoke. Nicxe creamy finish and the hops really emerge to carry it along. Great flavor and finish, but what’s up with the nose?

Jul 19, 2007 12oz bottle pours out a nice dark body topped with a tan head. A strong aroma of scrubbing bubbles (the shower cleaner) Man it was hard to get it out of my mind. The tast was much better of nice roast malt. A pretty thick body great tast. Thanks Jake and you JERKS

Jul 19, 2007 Bottle: Trade from Eithcubes - Thanks! Near black pour with a large, unruly beige head. Heavy lacing. The aroma brings this beast down with a overwhelming scent of Aquanet and hints of beer? The taste recovers with heavy roast, coffee, chocolate, bittersweetness, and hops. Overall, Kind of dry with lots of coffee. I still wonder how a brew that tastes good can smell so funky...

Jul 19, 2007 Pours black with a fizzy light brown head. The aroma is of toasted malts. The flavor is of a grassy hop flavor with the spicyness of the rye, along with the toasted malts. The body is medium with a oily texture and lively carbonation.

Jul 12, 2007 Dark brown and ruby coloured with a medium sized head. Roasted and malty with notes of dark and dried fruit, spices, coffee and a somewhat dry and bitter finish.

Jul 9, 2007 12 oz. bottle pours out a deep, deep ruby with an abundant and durable tan head leaving excellent lace - a beer can’t look much better than this. Dark roasty aroma with hints of pepper, dark fruit, and maybe some espresso. Medium body and carbonation, punctuated by a nice sharpness and bite. The rye influence in the flavor is unmistakeable, accentuated by a a burnt caramel sweetness, and finished off by a spicy bitterness. A really excellent brew.
