Jan 19, 2008 Very very dark brown to black with a healthy chocolate head thinning to smooth even film. If this isn’t a stout, then I just don’t know what a stout is! Big chocolatey roasty licorice nose smells a lot like Expedition. Perhaps a bit more of anise and chocolate. Less roast. Thicker; smooth, small even bubbles. Big aggressive flavor. Bigger roast. Bigger malt sweetness. Sticky aggressive piney hops. Anise is huge. This is a nasty big beer with long lingering roast. Quite a lovely big beer, in my opinon

Jun 28, 2006 I have NO idea what the hell this was. It was on tap at San Clemente. It said 8% abv. I could have sworn it tasted like some type of imperial stout or something. The last person’s description sounds like what I had but still doesn’t sound like an american strong ale, unless you’re using an extreme poetic license.

Jun 29, 2006 Updated: Mar 21, 2007solana beach. only had a few oz of this because i didn’t like it. seemed pretty complex, but it was just too ambivalent in its flavor profile for me. as in, i couldn’t figure out what this beer wanted to be, but i know i got chocolate, dark fruit, alcohol, and some funkiness. rerate. thanks cmubeerman. pretty metallic smelling. dirtiest looking beer ever. mostly an imperial stout. to hell with rerating.
