Dogbrick (2427), Columbus, Ohio, USA Dec 29, 2008 This beer pours brownish-amber with a medium foamy light beige head that diminishes slowly. Thin strings of lacing on the glass. Aroma of mildly roasted malt and nuts. Light to medium body with flavors of roasted nuts, peat malt and a bit of chocolate. The finish is sweet with a short roasted malt aftertaste. Overall the beer tastes pretty good but falls short since nothing really resonates. Beerdedone (1663), Croydon, Pennsylvania, USA Dec 28, 2008 Bottle. Pours brown with a small beigh head.
