Apr 15, 2007 On tap at the 10th Annual San Diego Strong Ale Festival: Pours an opaque black with a nicely-lacing dense frothy dark tan head. Aroma is reminiscent of maple-syrup on waffles with a touch of burnt toast and coffee beans. Body starts sweet, viscous and caramely with some chocolate cookie dough and molten espresso beans. Has a smooth, slightly warming dark chocolate finish with a touch of vanilla bourbon. Nicely balanced, complex and enjoyable.
