Draft 4/30/2005. Pours a very dark brown, with a thin tan head. Aroma of chocolate, rye, and some fruitiness (apple/prune). Very nice flavor of baker’s chocolate, bready malts, a slight pruney twist, with the burnt rye bread character building in the finish. A very good brew.

A big black, well-topped beer with a big coffee aroma. Mellow, yet with a well-done light java toastiness. Excellent beer (and the pizza here rocks, too!).

Incinerator Rye Bock - Almost stout-like black, very thin light tan creamy head. As it warmed, soft aromas of smoked milk chocolate, coffee, and rye bread emerge. Flavor was interesting as it was a combination of smokey citrus tones, bitter chocolate, and roasted malt. Seemed balanced enough for me, though it was my last beer of the Chicago adventure...and I was feeling damn near loopy by then. Medium bodied, lively carbonation, dry, smokey, rye finish. Really good brew if you’re into the smokey theme....I am for sure.

Pours black with barely any head. Aroma is roast malt, mild smoke, slight chocolate. Flavor bitter chocolate and coffee, roast malt, slight dry rye in the finish. Strong but drinkable.

Dark beer. Nice malt, rye aroma. Good dark, chewy, chocolate, malt, and the burnt bottom of the cookie flavors. Some bitterness. Good beer.
