Very smooth chocolatey taste, dark, but sweet bread. Very well-bodied, full creamy-nourishing texture. It’s clean, but not very characterful. Then again, it’s not meant as an assertive IPA. doubleo (470), San Diego, California, USA Apr 22, 2008 On-tap today at Stone. Pours brownish red with a creamy, off-white head, good lace.
