Dark brown with a large brown head that takes awhile to evaporate. Aroma of roasted sweet malt, light chocolate, dark fruit and a bit of earthiness. Taste is earthy and sour with herbal notes, strange spice (cardamom?), mild oak and a chalky finish.
3.9 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20 Indra (2476) - Overland Park, Kansas, USA - FEB 9, 2013
12oz. bottle. Aroma of roasty, black malts, mildly sweet and faintly tart with notes of dark chocolate, dried fruit, orange peel and tinges of the wine barrel as well, with faint oak, red grape, black cherry and a touch of fall spice in the background. Solid-looking opaque black in color, with a lasting, creamy, tan head and spots of lace. Flavor profile is darkly sweet, fruity, mildly winey and full of chocolate, with suggestions of smoke, wood, raisin, faintly spicy hop flavors and some mild bitterness and alcohol appearing towards the finish. Mouthfeel is smoothly effervescent, warming and semi-dry, with a properly full body. Rather nice. Doesn’t seem evil...
