UPDATED: OCT 29, 2009 en bj’s culver city (LAX), en general las cervezas son buena representacion de su estilo asi que vale la pena pedir el sampler. entre mas oscuras mejores

Tap. Opaque brown with a tiny tan head. Aroma: hazelnuts. Taste: more hazelnuts with some roasty malt and minimal bitterness. Thin mouthfeel. Almost like a melted coffee ice cream, with hazelnuts.

Cask: Nearly black with dark wood highlights. Hazelnut exudes throughout ... much too excessively. Aside from the overt hazelnut, it’s pretty good -- warming, cozy, thick, wholesome and woodsy. But then again, I like Tatonka, so that’s not surprising.

Draught, cask. Body is dark brown. Aroma is lightly malty (caramel), with a STRONG note of hazelnut. Flavor is moderately sweet, lightly acidic. Finish is lightly sweet, lightly acidic, lightly bitter. Medium body, watery texture, soft carbonation. Whoa, Mark, lay offa da hazelnut a little, eh? It overpowers to the point that it’s stomach-turning. A little goes a long way.
