3.7 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 14/20
Sampled on draft at the House of 1000 Beers this beer poured a black color wtih a large foamy dark tan head that lingered and left great lacing. The aroma was anise, coffee and a bit roasty - pleasant but rather faint. The flavor was anise, sweetish malts, plum, vanilla, coffee, faint toasty malts and a faint boozy presence underneath. Long finish of anise and plum. Thick and creamy body. Solid.
