Dec 13, 2008 Bottle - best by 080308. Poured dark brown with a light tan head that settles to a ring quickly and left light lacing. Initial aroma of chocolate syrup but settles out to a chocolate and coffee malt mix. The flavor has sweet molasses, chocolate and a light roast with a slight hop background. Medium body that was sweet upfront and bitter in the end.

Dec 12, 2008 Bottle. Pours a clear dark brown with a thick light tan head. Aroma of chocolate and roasted malts. Flavor of light roasted malts with a sweet finish. Light bodied. This beer has some slight lager like characteristics, but it is more like a light porter than a dunkel. It is pretty good though.

Dec 5, 2008 Poured a clear deep red-brown color with a small off-white head. The aroma is malty with some roasty cola notes and light chocolate. Roasted malt with lots of caramel and some dark chocolate. Just about a medium body.

Dec 3, 2008 Bottle. Pours a dark brown with a medium-sized tan head. Aromas are a little bit chocolaty with dark malt and a kind of dusty air. Flavor starts with a little bit of an annoying sweet darkness, which yields to an earthy peat phase before finishing watery. This is OK, but not great.

Nov 30, 2008 Pretty dark, considering they filter the tar out of the beer. Deep dark brown in color, with a head that will settle down to a thin layer. It is opaque. This is not a bad looking beer. I smell a little roast or smokiness in the aroma. Also, there is a slight coffee aroma too! Crap, this beer actually smells quite good, and I love the nuances of the aroma. The flavor is muted, BIG TIME. This beer has coffee, and a nutty roast taste to it. Also, it is very malty indeed! The beer just doesn’t have a damn palate to it. The flavors aren’t able to grab on to my tongue because this crap is so thin. It is like that one night I drank my urine expecting something nice and tart i.e. a complete let down! Overall, nice and dark with a great smell just not a great palate and a great flavor. There are a lot of different flavors, my tongue just can’t seem to grab them and force them into submission!

Oct 28, 2008 Bottle. Pours an amber body with a small tan head. Light chocolate and caramel malt with a light hoppiness, dark fruit, very smooth and drinkable. Light smoke and coffee character. Good beer.
