| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | Jun 7, 2009 12 oz. btl. light smells of roast and coffee. Initial taste is exactly like a tootsie roll, nice chocolate and burnt toffee thing going on. Unfortunately, it’s quickly gone with a watery, thin finish, and somehow the flavor got less pronounced and flatter as it warmed. OK - they could do a lot better with some tinkering on this one.
