Commercial Description:
Our flagship beer. A large percentage of black malt give this distinctive ale its dark brown/black color and that slightly roasted flavor. Magnum hops provide a backbone of bitterness and large additions of Mt. Hood hops later in the boil come right through in the finish. The result is a highly drinkable dark ale which bridges the gap between pale and porter.

Wasn’t impressed with this too much. Overwhelming malt taste, took over everything

Bottle, thanks to WeeHeavySD and Bikesandbeer for sharing. Pours a clear brown with a thin, cream-colored head that fades. Slightly sour malt aroma, yeasty with under-ripe fruit. Taste of burnt, toasted malt and sour vinegar. Lingering burnt flavors. Didn’t really work for me.

On tap at Belmont Station--Poured a dark, murky brown-amber body with a toffee and hops spice nose. Sweet, rich and crisp. Very nice and highly drinkable. Somewhere between and amber and a brown ale but with the quaffability of a pale ale.

On tap. Pours a deep ebony color with an off-white head. The aroma is a bit hoppy, yet a bit sweet (chocolate?). The flavor has the roasted malt upfront, with a touch of coffee. Interestingly enough, the mouthfeel isn’t "heavy" like a lot of dark brews, but is lighter than it looks like it should be. This brew has a bit of a hops presence and a little bitterness, but a posses great balance with the roasted malts. Very drinkable. I’d like to pair this brew with some nice barbecue food and a potato salad.

What does one expect from a session beer??? The flavor is there...roasted malt, caramel, toffee. The aroma is subtle coffee with a touch of honey sweetness. Thin compared to others in the category but that quality adds to its drinkability. I liked it. Wouldn’t mind another (and another, and another, and another).
