Mar 4, 2009 Draft at Tylers in Apex. Thanks for buying Scott! Big surprise this beer is a blend, but it does pour dark, some could even say black. Pretty meh as far as stouts go. Drinkable, but uninspiring. I hope Obama will do better.

Mar 2, 2009 Nice brew, but nothing fabulous. Not as fabulous as those inauguration parties i’m sure. Poured a dark reddish black colour with crazy ass carbonation- in fact that’s what dissapointed me the most. Maybe it was just the tap, but way too much for the palate. Tastey however, nice balanced of chocolate of and cherry- like chocolate covered cherries. Rich with dark roasted malts, a certain milky quality and wicked smooth taste all the way through.

Mar 1, 2009 @ Tyler’s in Apex. Good aroma, sweet & sour. Chocolate, cherry. Not very strong though. Brownish black color, good head & lacing. Sour sweet flavor, like aroma, with more of the roast coming through, cherry came and went on me. Medium body, lite creamy mouth feel, bitter dry finish. It was good, went down fast. Appearance wise it was perfect, nice head, stayed most of the way with good lace, nice color.

Feb 28, 2009 The aroma is malty, cocao, mild cherries. The appearance is dark brown/black, tan head. The flavor is more roasty, but also has a fruity component. It really is as thugh a kriek lambic was mixed in. Some chocolate notes are present as well. Very thin mouthfeel for this style. It finishes with mainly roasted malt on the palate, little hops, some cherry flavor left over. Decent, enjoyable beer, hardly worth the $32.99 they want for a growler of this stuff. I will say this, it is a unique beer.

Feb 20, 2009 Draft at Max’s on Broadway in Baltimore. The bartenders and patrons were talking about this beer because it was Inauguration week. Everyone was saying that this was not a good beer, but the curiosity got the best of me. Pours deep brown with an off white head. Smells like feet. This tastes like a blend of a bad porter and cheap kriek. Finishes acetic finish with notes of dusty cobwebs. They were right. This is not good. At least it’s better than the stimulus bill and his cabinet, and that’s not saying much. Overated, just like Obama. Perhaps Obama can redistribute the wealth and reimburse me for this shitty beer
