| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Oct 30, 2009 Poured a deep but not opaque black with ruby highlights. The head is a thin beige cap. The nose is mild with roastiness malt dark fruit and vanilla. The taste starts somewhat sweet like a chocolate covered raisin with underlying roastiness and a lingering finish of dark chocolate and earth.The alcohol really never rears its head very easy to drink albeit a bit mild compared to many other of the style.
