May 6, 2008 Courtesy SoLan. Almost black pour, sparse thin light white head. Light roast, some chocolate, a little briny in the background. Not much going on for the taste except a hint of light sweet roast. A little bland.

Apr 20, 2008 Pours a brown color, only the slightest hint of black. The aroma is virtually non-existient. Slight hint of chocolate milk, no roast detectable at all. Flavor is equally as subdued, bordering on benign. Disappointing.

Apr 11, 2008 12oz Bottle - at the High Street Pub - Bellefonte, PA. There’s oysters in this beer? That’s so depressing. Flat-line aroma. Pours mahogany with ruby corner. Not much head. Flavor is real bland. Lightly salty, glassy and with too much mineral. Empty. A bit of misplaced sourness. Not much roast character. Mostly a weak English yeast profile and some light alcohol. Dry and I can appreciate that, but this is so boring, bland an just unexciting.

Apr 3, 2008 Smell like over ripe sour fruit when you first pour. Thin head. A bit too malty for my liking. Kinda watery.
