Roasty creamy aroma. Flavor is not as intense as the aroma. Roasty creamy and sweet in the finish. Pretty good.

Dark brown with medium light tan head. Aroma like a Starbucks. Tastes of bitter chocolate and roasted coffee, but very thin body. No finish to speak of.

Nitro at TFD Boise. Dark brown pour with a thick, creamy brown head. Light aroma of roast and a faint sweetness. Tastes more roasty than anything, a little chocolate and some bittersweetness. Not bad.

On tap at Produce Row in Portland--A deep black-brown creamy body with a thick pluming head of whiteness. Soft, fluffy mouthfeel with a nutty, roasty, chalky, smooth malt body. A bitter, off-finishing palate feel that was good but not quite perfect. Still, quite injestable.
