Jan 5, 2009 Had on tap at Murphy’s pub in Champaign. Pours a reddish-brown with medium thick off-white head that lingered well and left good lacing. Both the nose and flavor were a very good mix of caramel, coffee and licorice, with the taste more dominant than the aroma. As the ber warmed, the licorice became more overpowering than the other elements, , which led to a tingly mouth and warming finish. Not a bad winter warmer at all.
