On draught at Ale House #1. This Jay character knows his stuff! His Anastasia Russian Imperial Stout last year was pretty darn good. This beer is very dark brown with a thin off-white head. Aromatic malt and coffee in the nose. Medium-bodied and very smooth, with the smoked character nicely understated. Roasted malt and coffee flavors are intertwined with a bit of sweet chocolate. The finish is soft and smooth with malt and a touch of floral hops. Very enjoyable.

On tap at alehouse #1 - Pours almost black but very deep dark brown with a nice tan head. Aroma is of roasted chocolate malt and some coffee. Flavor is much the same with a little unexpected smokiness. On the palate this is much thinner than I expected and seemed a touch on the watery side. Nonetheless a nice brew though and it was most excellent on cask...
