On tap at the brewery. Poured a deep brown/black color with a moderate tan head that faded to a ring and left some thick sheets of lacing. Aroma of choclate malt, coffee, amaretto, nuts, and light black licorice. Smooth, sweet entry leads into a moderate roastiness with hints of coffee and chocolate that leads into an aggressive earthy, citrusy hoppiness that finishes lightly bitter with soft hints of chocolate. Low carbonation and smooth, slick mouth feel. Overall, the description may sound a tad oppositional, but the balance it creates is quite enjoyable. It isn’t overly complex, but it’s certainly enjoyable and drinkable.
