Dark brown pour with burgandy highlights. Notes of coffee, smoke, and roast in the nose. Flavor has a little lactic sourness and a somewhat cloying palate. Not bad though

Pours a dark black with a creamy tan head. Very chocolatey, coffee, roasty, nice smooth aroma. The flavor is similar, chocolatey, coffee, easy dry bitterness. Very enjoyable.

Tap at Brewgrass. Nearly black pour with lovely tan head. Roasty notes on the nose; coffee and creamy chocolate; malty. Some hop presence, but not a ton. A little thin on the palate, but immensely drinkable.
