seth_lfod (117) - Manchester, New Hampshire, USA - MAR 3, 2013
Vintage 2011. Gifted by Nick... Thanks! Pours a very dark brown with a reddish hue. Smell is roasted malts, a bit of chocolate, and alcohol. Taste is surprisingly better that the scent... Which I wasn’t expecting. Smooth bitterness followed by unsweetened cocoa. Not really alcohol and a nice roasted malt undertones. Dry finish and good medium body.

A very dark ruby-red with a white head. Spice and caramel on the nose, full bodied with hints of hops and spice. The long linger is delicious and clean.

On tap in a tulip. Pours almost black with a lacy, tan head. Aroma of roasted and chocolate malts, some bread, and a good amount of floral and almost citrusy hops. Flavor a nice blend of the dark malts and hops. Smooth texture. A good beer.
