Oct 30, 2009 Sample from a monster sized bottle at Darkness Day. Pour is lovely dark brown with a thick tan head that leaves a nice lacing. Aroma is that of roasted malts, caramel, candy sugar, alcohol and earthy hops. Flavor is sweet and alcoholic but decent. Palate is a bit boozy and a little thin but solid. Overall its a solid beer.
