Apr 21, 2009 Very dark brown pour with a small white head. Subtly roasty malt and bread aroma. Nutty bread flavor with a little bit of a spicy noble hop finish and a touch of brown sugar. Medium body with a crisp lager finish and moderate carbonation.

Oct 30, 2007 pours brown/black with no head. light earthy, coffee aroma. some sweet roasted grains come through but flavor drops off pretty quickly. the palate is quite thin. makes for easy drinking, but fails to leave a lasting impression.

Apr 10, 2005 On tap at MBC. Dark brown body, thin off-white head. Thin roasty, toasty, nutty aroma. Flavor of dry chocolate and nutty notes, dominated by toast. Thin palate that gets a bit tart in the aftertaste. Easy drinking, but too thin with a weak finish.

Nov 13, 2004 This one has a pretty low ABV. I was not overly impressed, I prefer their stout to this one. A nice chocolate undertone with a malty taste. Thinner than one would expect for a dark beer.
