| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Jul 8, 2009 Courtesy of keifdog. Pours brown with thin tan head. The aroma has pleasing notes of molasses, some burnt malts and then fades away with little else going on. The taste has a modest level of burnt – roastiness followed by faint molasses and more roasted flavors. It stays even into the finish while picking up a nice sense of chocolate. kiefdog (1640), Tampa, Florida, USA
