Jan 29, 2008 Bottle shared by JoeMcPhee. A strong licorice, peppermint, strong herbal aroma. Very nice. More mint in the flavor, lots of tobacco. I found this to be extremely unique and delicious, with the strong cigar and pipe flavors comin out big time.

Jan 28, 2008 Updated: Jun 29, 200822oz bomber shared by JoeMcPhee at his gathering. I guess I am going against the grain here and believe me I have no love for this usually underwhelming brewery. It pours dark brown and clear. Aroma is strong with alcohol, sugary raisin, and a dry green herbal quality. Very cool, like an amped up Brussels black. Taste is very subtle, much less alcohol, light watery sweetness, and a lively fresh hop finish. It’s herbal, lightly sweet and has a soft mouthfeel. Definitely the best Rock Art beer I have ever come across. 8/3/7/3/16
Re-rate I can’t believe how crappy this beer was the second go around, again at Joe’s gathering. I was more sober but I can’t believe thats the reason. Just tasted like a mess, some weird spice and sweetness that’s followed bu a weak body. I don’t know wtf I was drinking the firs time but it must have been a different beer. 6/3/6/2/13

Jan 27, 2008 Bottle, thanks to someone. Brown pour, off-white head. Aroma is some chocolate, smoked malt, licorice, a little meaty. Flavor is the same with some sweet chocolate present.

Jan 26, 2008 Updated: Jun 21, 2008Its like I don’t even want to waste my time and palate rating a beer that smells this bad. The beer is smoky, peppery spicy and meaty. All of these flavor would be good but they don’t blend well at all.
6/21 only fair to rerate this cause this time I actually like the jerky wood aspect of this stuff. Still very meaty and it goes really well with the stinky-ass cheese I’m eating.

Jan 3, 2008 Poured a deep brown color with a big beige head. The aroma was odd with notes of licorice and root beer. The flavor was sweet with some fruitiness and licorice. Semi-sweet finish. Warmth in the throat.

Dec 17, 2007 A dark brown to almost black appearance. Some peppermint, caramel, and chocolate aromas. The flavor consists of more mint, plums, chocolate, and molasses. The finish is slightly alcoholic and sweet. Not bad but nothing to jump up and down hollerin HELL YEAH! about either.
