Dec 25, 2008 Thanks, bro! Pours a very dark ruby color that almost looks oil-black, with a very thin white ring. Aroma is smoke, wood, roasted malts, tobacco, and a bit of alcohol. Taste is smooth, smoke, tobacco, and a mineral-like quality that my bro explains as Iodine.

Dec 20, 2008 Bottle. Pours very thick, black with little head. The aroma is of malts and bourbon. The flavor is interesting: it has a very strong peat characteristic, and tastes smoked and almost salty, but with sweet coffee malts reminiscent of a porter. It gets much better as you drink it, but it is still rather tough to drink. Very interesting, but I do not think that I would be inclined to get it again.

Dec 17, 2008 Black in color with a small light brown head. The aroma is of woody with notes of scotch, chocolate, dark fruits and a hint of soy sauce. The flavor is of good whiskey, oak, dark fruits and coffee. The texture is watery. Overall Id say it’s a good ale; I like it, but I felt the texture is somewhat of a let down.

Dec 17, 2008 Crushed with Jakebra. Nice. Black and thick. Just like Honkeybra likes em. Whisky-y nose, with some soy sauce possibly. Flavor is complex. Bitterness, some motor oil, some black stuff. Very nice mouthfeel. Just rolls over the tongue and happiness ensues.

Dec 15, 2008 Pours with a very dark black hue - almost looks like tar. The hue sits below a light brown head.
Dark fruits are dominant in the aroma, as well as scotch and lots of yeast.
Flavor is woody and smoky, with lots of figs and dates in the end flavor.
Syrupy texture, with lively carbonation.
