Color of this beer is deep black. Head’s color is like creamy mocha and it is quite thin but lasting. Aromas are dark chokolate, roasted malts. Flavors are roughly roasted malts and rye bread, a little bit of metallic nuance. You can find a hint of chokolate from the flavor also. Nice bitterness in the aftertaste. Palate is quite smooth, slightly carbonated and gooey.

Jan 6, 2009 Bottle. Black. Small beige head. Smells choclate. Tastes chocolate and port with small tartness in the aftertaste. I think this beer has a little too much carbonation.

Dec 30, 2008 Caramelly notes with very light chocolate and abv on the nose. A deed dark brown pour with huge frothy head and lace.More caramel on the flavor with a very nice smooth bitter finish. Light hints of abv and hint of chocolate but that is all a very interesting beer to say the least.

Dec 21, 2008 12oz bottle at the Crosswoods Winking Lizard. Pours pitch black with a huge tan head. Super malty aroma, but there is some roast character there. Malty sweet flavor with a nice roasty coffee finish. Expensive, but worth it.

Dec 20, 2008 Black, firm tanned head. Nicely smooth aroma has little coffee, dried fruits, smoke, cocoa, molasses and loads of leather. Similar flavor with quite tangy hoppiness in the finish, not all that pleasant. Medium to full bodied, round filling mouthfeel. I remember this one being better on tap. A good nightcap, though far from the top.
