| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Sep 22, 2008 Bottle from Steveo. Thanks. Pours out a brown color with a thick brown head on it. Smell is sweet, caramel, toffee, chocolate, and oats. The taste is pretty thick, I thought this might have been an impy at first, but realized it wasnt. Sweet and full bodied with plenty of chocolate and roasted malt flavors. Maybe I was getting a buzz but I think this one was pretty good. I think I was in the minority at the tasting though. illinismitty (1800), Nashville, Tennessee, USA
