| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Sep 5, 2009 Bottle in trade via Bonster the Monster. Light nose of toasted malt and some caramel as top is popped. Pours a silky black with a short lived coffee brown head that settles to ring of glass fast. No lacing. A thinner bodied brew than expected but a pleasant light bitterness surrounds the subdued malt body. Tartness stays until slow cramy finish subsides. Nice....and it was on my difficult want list.
