3.7 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Tap: inky dark brown pour with thin tan head. Aroma is roast grain with coffee, caramel and rasting nuts. Flavor is similar to the smell with toffee on top of roasted grain, roasted nuts, a little charred bread, and a dab of soy sauce. Palate is thick with a mild sweet and a light bitter. This beer is a mouthful of flavor and nice to sip easy to drink.

Strong aroma of hazelnut, caramel and spices. Dark brownish black with a tan foam rim. Pleasantly chalky flavors of cocoa nibs, black patent, nuts and toasted caramel. Subtle hop undertones with a continuous cocoa/chocolate on the finish. Overall, Well done. Smooth, balanced and drinkable. I’d give this an A rating.

Poured at Cap Brewfest. Aroma and flavor like smoking a flavored cigar. Some chocolate and roasted almond/cashew mix in there. Palate had nice carb and a clean finish. Very nice beer.

3.9 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
This brew pours an opaque brown-black color with a medium khaki head that dissipates slowly. Partial rings of lacing on the glass. Aroma of coffee, roasted malt and chocolate. Medium-bodied with a roasty character and flavors of sweet malt, espresso and chocolate. The finish is roasty with a lingering coffee aftertaste. Pretty good overall.
