| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Feb 22, 2009 Tap at the brewpub. Aroma a touch soapy with some coffee and sweet chocolate. Flavor of some coffee and roasted malt. The sweet chocolate tried to return in the finish, but this and much of the flavor was covered up by astringency. Weak bodied to boot. Unimpressive.
