hellbilly (865), scottsdale über alles, Arizona, USA Jul 7, 2008 pours mostly black with brown at the edges and a long lasting creamy beige head from the nitro tap. lots of lacing left on the glass as the beer recedes. aroma is very faint... i pulled out some chocolate, roasty grain and a coffee-like nuttiness. the flavor is a bit bland and watered down as well... soft sourness, chocolate, earthy coffee-ish, grain and light ash in the aftertaste. light to medium body, seems kinda flat and empty in the mouth and a bit watery.
cbkschubert (1573), Skyline, Arizona, USA Mar 11, 2008 Draft @ the AZ Strong Beer Fest - Pours a dark brown color with a small light tan head. Light lacing. Aroma is roasted malt, and light chocolate and coffee. Flavor is much of the same. Mouthfeel is a little dry and thin. A decent beer. Bockyhorsey (1973), Mesa, Arizona, USA Oct 25, 2006 Draught. Had a mild aroma of coffee. Black body with good tan creamy head. A blanket of lace was left on the glass. Body texture was thin and somewhat watery. Mild flavors of sweet roasted coffee. Had a noticable coffee aftertaste on the palate. Oakes (6853), Miami Beach, Florida, USA Oct 10, 2005 Very dark brown colour. Light aroma balances chocolate and roast. Smooth, sweet palate with light coffee notes. Fairly sweet flavour, again featuring coffee and chocolate in that order. Bit of a quick finish, though. Straightforward but reasonable example, with nice body.
