Draft at Blind Tiger in NYC. Pours a dark brown with tan head. Aroma is mostly burnt malt. Tastes of coffee, and chocolate dominate this brew. Finishes clean on palate.

Nov 22, 2009 Very dark, not much of a head. Nose is peppery, with cocoa and coffee. Palate is nice, a bit oily, dark chocolate, lots of malt on this, but still maintains some balance, decent, not as nice as a baltic, but very drinkable.

Nov 21, 2009 Dark brown-red with a thin cream head. Heavy malt nose with pine and licorice as backing. Flavor is similar, strong chocolate malt with light plum and faint cream, roast bitterness following through in the finish. Thick, sticky body. Pretty good, though not showing much complexity.

Oct 1, 2009 bottle courtesy of cletus. pours a thick blackened brown with minimal head, 1 finger if you are vigorous. nose has some nice chocolate muffin notes with a lil cacao powder on top and some espresso essence. taste is nice and creamy, with some solid burnt and smoked notes, yet not overwhelming. smooth drinker.

Sep 30, 2009 bottle: full, sweet malts in the nose, chocolate and hints of caramel. pours dark brown/black with a quickly dissipating tan head. The brew is well balanced, medium bodied and smooth mouthfeel with bright carbonation. Roasted malts, coffee finished with hops and alcohol for a nice ending. I like it a lot but probably won’t be running back to the shop for seconds.

Aug 26, 2009 ( 22oz bottle thanks to ballewblake) Pours a dark clear brown with oily bubbles. Nose of bakers chocolate, cola and coffee. Taste is semisweet chocolate, with a very creamy body and nice carbonation. The linger is roasted toffee and the body is surprisingly light.
