wilkie (1092), Raleigh, North Carolina, USA Aug 17, 2003 Tan head, deep ruby brown color. Rich malty nose, a tad nutty. Wonderful malty sweet flavor, sweet finish with strong flavor. Excellent.
paulmetzger (145), Pocatello, Idaho, USA Mar 27, 2006 Pours deep, slightly translucent brown with low to moderate carbonation. Aroma is primarily chocolate, with caramel and fruit/flower. Starts light and sweet, reminiscent of chocolate covered cherries, then moves to coffee with pronounced floral undertones finishing with mild dryness that leaves dark chocolate and strawberry aftertaste. Smooth and milky throughout. Wow, this is one damn fine beer, and organic to boot! nearbeer (1334), Knoxville, Tennessee, USA Sep 29, 2007 12 oz. Dark brown with a large and lasting head. Nice wispy clouds of lace. Cocoa, sour cream and earthy, metallic herb aromas. Flavor is dry cocoa, graham crackers, marshmallow and prickly, earthy spiced molasses. Slight coffee with soured milk, and green mesquite woodsmoke are also present. Palate is a little chalky, near medium-bodied, and smooth but tingly at the same time. PeterA (338), USA Oct 10, 2003 A very nice nutty-coffee flavor with an appropriately rich accompanying aroma. The color is a nice, barely translucent brown. Starts out sweet and finishes with just a hint of bitterness. Good stuff. BarePaw (149), Pullman, Washington, USA Feb 1, 2003 It has a subtle aroma, and a good thick head. The flavor is a pleasant mix of roasted smoky chocolate. It is also very smooth. I liked it.
