3.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
UPDATED: JUN 23, 2005 Pours a thick dark brown with a creamy tan head. Aroma to me smelled like a mix of roasted chocolate and beef jerkey which is very interesting. Flavor is very similar to the aroma, starting with sweet dry roasted malts then finishing with that same smokey beef jerkey flavor (though not bad like u might imagine). Overall, I found it a pretty light satisfying stout.
