| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Sep 23, 2007 Updated: Jan 23, 2008Appearance: Pours a clear, dark brown with a dense, off-white head.
Smell: Sweet-smelling, enormously nutty aroma. Hints of cocoa powder.
Taste: The taste is initially semi-sweet, but incredibly nutty and toasted all the while. Again, there’s that hint of cocoa. Just enough of a gentle, subtle bitterness on the dry finish.
Mouthfeel: Medium-bodied. Medium carbonation.
Drinkability: I’ll tell you what, it was surprisingly nice, at least on-tap. dwyerpg (2545), Las Vegas, Nevada, USA
