May 31, 2008 On tap @ Falling Rock poured a clear dar brown with red highlights and a lasting tan head. Aromas of smoke, fruittiness, coffee, cocoa and light roastiness. Palate was light to medium bodied and smooth with a dry finish. Flavors of coffee, smoke, figs and light roastiness with a smooth lingering semi sweet finish.

May 31, 2008 tap. interesting beer. nice dark body with a decent head. aroma was hard to place. almost none of the expected chocolate, it was there, but very low key. something floral that i couldn’t name. the flavor was nice, pine and something floral that woke me up. sweet but balanced with a spice or hop that worked well. enjoyable enough that i ordered a 2nd pint. made a quick transition from the initila taste of sugary sweet light cocoa to a powdery floral spice with a lingering pine like taste.

Sep 12, 2008 Huge thanks to thejoeshow, for sharing these gems! Pours a medium roast coffee black. Definate cinnamon, ginger, milk chocolate, light torpical fruits as well as a touch of oaky smokiness. Palate is a little thin with the cinnamon and coffee smokiness coming through. The palate is not bad with a nice oaky smokiness drying out the finish. Nice, but not as good as some of the other LOF beers.

Sep 13, 2008 22 oz bottle. Pours a semi transparent brown/black with a big tan head. The aroma on this thing is what I like to call "breakfasty". You get notes of cinnamon and ginger in there. The flavor is just as wonderful as the aroma. It has the breakfasty thing going on here too, but also I pick up a slight licorice flavor to it. Excellent beer! Nice job Jessica!
