Feb 25, 2008 Dark brown body, not much head. Dark chocolate and burnt raisins in the flavor finishing with roast and hop bitterness. What little aroma I get is of raisins. A chocolate-roasty beer with a big dose of dark-fruit crystal malt. Good, and surprisingly flavorful for the Ale House.

Feb 22, 2008 Dark brown color with a smaller dense off-white head. Dark chocolate and mild coffee scents with a mild backdrop of floor malt. Flavors match up with the scents with some caramel and a black malt bitterness in the finish and linger.

Feb 18, 2008 Pours to a really dark brown cola colored body with a thin ring white head. The flavors are lightly sweetened bitter black chocolate, de-husked black malt, light licorice or anise, milk. Bitter roast with a lot of muted earthy components. The aroma is a weak chocolate brownie and raw cocoa powder mixed with a roasted grain sack. It has a definite Baltic porter taste. The palate is astringent, medium bodied, bitter, and has a lingering sweetness.
