Extremely dark brown color......almost completely opaque. Somewhat thin, though fluffy head......very bold aroma of roasted malt. Front contains a much lighter malt flavor than the aroma would suggest. Creamy mouthfeel, with just a hint of crispness......nice roasted malt flavor in the back. Though lagers will always be lighter than ales, this dark lager makes a solid effort to cross styles.

Sep 19, 2008 Pours a deep dark brown. Aroma is sweet, and good roasty malt. Flavor tastes a bit coppery, but otheriwse nice and toasty. A hint of chocolately flavor, but otherwise, a solid dark lager.

Aug 23, 2008 tastes a little thin - pours dark brown/chocolate color - flavors of richly roasted malt. I really wanted to like this beer but it is just average

Aug 10, 2008 12 oz bottle. Pours a deep brown with a hint of golden highlights. There is a frothy off white/cream colored head that falls to a nicely lacing ring. The aroma is heavy on the dark malts. That is about all i get out of the nose on this beer. Flavor is full of nicely roasted malts with a hint of coffee. Very smooth and finishes really clean. This might be my favorite of their year round beers.
