wcampbell (411), Lewisburg, Pennsylvania, USA Jul 25, 2007 Good, but way overrated. Initial roasted malt sweetness finishes with a slightly bitter chocolate flavor. Mild taste of hops in the flavor. Overall a good but boring beer.
SHIG (1466), Oberoffligen, Germany Aug 16, 2008 Bottle: Poured a dark black with a reddish tint, head is medium and tan. The aroma is light roasted malt. Taste is roasted malt with chocolate hints. Finish is dry and coffee bean. bethmatt0421 (282), Covington, Kentucky, USA Aug 14, 2008 Aroma is smoky, bready malts, light chocolate. Flavor has a lot of the same traits. Its also has a light silk palate that i find works well with its body. Now im wondering why i kept putting this beer off. Good stuff. namzad (5), , Saskatchewan, Canada does not count Aug 8, 2008 Updated: Aug 10, 2008recommended by the "beer guy" at the evansdale co-op liquor store, Calgary. Thanks for this one...
in english pint glass it poured a very dark brown with a light brown head. This beer could have a viscosity rating of 5w30. It clings to the side of the glass. Nice lacing. Got earthy notes in the nose; nuts and caramel. perfect balance between smooth, sweet, creamy and bitter. Highly recommend this beer. bitbucket (1536), Kirkland, Washington, USA Aug 8, 2008 Bottle. Pours clear dark brown with a dense and lacy tan head. Aroma of chocolate, caramel and roasted nuts. Body and carbonation are both on the light side. Lightly sweet taste of chocolate, oatmeal, figs and just a little roasted malt. Smoky, earthy chocolate finish with light bittering. dwaggs2 (63), Warrensburg, Missouri, USA Aug 3, 2008 Bottle. Poured a dark brown almost black with a creamy tan head. Smelled of roasted caramel and coffee. Tasted pretty much the same. Nice mouthfeel. Smooth drinkable beer, not to thick.
