(Draught) Pours a black body with a medium tan head. Aroma of roasted malt, chocolate, and coffee. Flavor of roasted malt, coffee, chocolate, grass, and caramel malt with a dry, bitter finish. By far the best beer at Bricktown.

Deep dark brown in colour - 75% opaque with a nice sized brown head. Aroma of chocolate, coffee and roasted malt. Medium-bodied; Deep bittering maltiness with some coffee flavours and a bit of chocolate throughout. Aftertaste shows some nuts and a light sweetness along with the other bitter flavours. Overall, decent - not great, nor horrible. I sampled this beer on draught at the Bricktown Brewery in Oklahoma City, OK on 17-November-2005.

On draught at the brewpub in August, poured an opaque dark brown with a very slight tan head. Light-bodied, with a big roasted character and very dry finish.

(Tap) Pours an inky black with a tan head that didn’t look too bad. Only the slightest aroma, which was slightly bitter. Flavor is of roasted or burnt malts. A decent bitter finish. If it wasn’t so watery, this beer might have actually tasted pretty good.

I’m going to go out on a limb and say that this wasn’t a terrible beer. It had some toffee and coffee tastes, and if you ignored the complete lack of aroma and the totally watered down body, you’d be left with something that you may consider beer, but in the end realize that its still just watered down crap.

This is just too thin and watery tasting. Tastes like it’s flavored with essence of roasted malt. The roastiness is there but it’s ruined by the watery body and citrusy notes.

(On tap) Black with an orangey red haze and a creamy, beige head. Very burned aroma. Medium body with lots of burned malt with very nice accents of both licorice and chocolate. Dry finish with a light bitterness from the black malts. Definitely the best Bricktown of the day. Quite delicate. 210306

Sampler, rated from 2001 notes. Probably the best you'll find here. Despite its dryness, I picked up a creamy oatmeal thread.

On Tap; Brown with a reddish tint, okay head with good lacing. Medium-bodied. Nutty, roasted malt, strong coffee aroma, a bit earthy and touch of raisin. Tangy and sweet taste, a touch of woody dryness, good balance. Bitter finish. Oily and soft mouthfeel. Now this is respectable, the only beer that Bricktown brews worth a pint glass. Okay if you are visiting the Bricktown area of OKC.

Deep brown hue, with a very nutty taste but no apparent aroma. After it warms (and Bricktown serves these VERY cold) there is a horrible sour bread flavor. It is apparent in most of their other brews, but this one is the strongest. I didn't finish the glass because of this.
