<i>From a 12oz Bottle.</i> Somewhat transparent, rusty black body with a thin layer of off-white head. Roasty aroma that’s highlighted by a whiff of fresh mint and light licorice. Prunes and medium roast coffee. Medium bodied, softly carbonated mouthfeel with a relatively dry finish. Flavors of cocoa and roast up front, along with some mild prune fruits. Moderately dry, with a bit of an ashy flavor lingering in the finish. Solid, but not exceptional.

Oct 30, 2008 GABF 2008. Silver medal winner. Near-black pour, thin dense brown head. Generous espresso bean aroma, rich roast, faint smoke, medium bodied, earthy vegetal dry finish. Delicious!

Oct 27, 2008 Black pour with solid brown head. Aroma is weak dark roast. Flavor has only the slightest hint of coffee notes, which I like immensely. Also roasty chocolate malt. Pretty good, considering I don’t really like coffee at all.

Oct 23, 2008 Pitch black pour with minimal ruby hints at the edges. Slight creamy tan head hangs around nicely. Dark roasty aroma with hints of bitter roasted coffee grounds. Body is smooth like there is lactose in here. Smooth roasted malt then a finish of fresh coffee beans.
