Dec 23, 2007 Appearance is pretty good, a head that doesn’t completely disappear with a good lacing. The crisp black color is nice.
Smell is light, but sour with a slight backround of coffee.
Taste is of black coffee and little else.
Mouthfeel is very smooth, good.
I could wait to have this fresh, but I would still be wary of it.

Dec 22, 2007 Poured with a fair to diminishing head. Flavor was bitter up front with a nice finish. Will try again.

Dec 11, 2007 Aroma: roasty with notes of vanilla, cocoa, and maple syrup. Taste: charred grain, nutty, spicy hop, slight citrus. Mouthfeel: velvety and tongue coating bit with a slight carbonation spritz. Overall: Based on what i have had from this brewery in the past, this was surprisingly decent.

Nov 28, 2007 Updated: Feb 2, 2008Poured into a shaker pint with a very thin head. Deep red-brown in color. Good coffee scent. Expected a little more from the taste. Rather light in flavor. Makes me think of weak oatmeal stout. Not a lot of body to this beer. It’s certainly not a bad beer, but just average. The flavor just doesn’t live up to the expectations given by the smell.

Nov 25, 2007 Tasted at Pyramid’s Berkeley brewpub as a taster set w/5 other beers. Clearly the least favored by all of the tasters. Looked like Coca Cola. Smelled strongly of instant coffee. Highly carbonated, mineral-water mouthfeel. Tasted slightly off-first sour, then watery, then finished w/ an abrupt dry hops astringency.
