2.6 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
A mild stout, both in taste and alcohol. Not bad as a beer or a shwartzbeer, there’s chocolate here. Roasty and coffee-ish, even a hint of wood and smoke, but medium-thin mouthfeel. Also bleach from glass in nose. Malty sufficiently to be Quaffable.
3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
85-90% opaque. Chocolate aroma, hop touch, perfume and lactic flavors. Roasted, malty edge, but lacking the boldness it might have. Carbonated lilt with a hollowness afterward. I assumed this was a schwarzbier, and I’m proven correct. (on tap, downtown Atlanta location)

Draft. Dark brown and clear. Light nutty caramel malty nose, and some fruit, like apples. More light-caramel malty flavors, some roastiness, and some chocolate.
3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Clear dark brown-bronze body with a filmy, fading light tan head. Good dark malty nose with notes of unsweetened chocolate, tobacco, light roast, and a faint vegetal note, but not off-putting. More roast comes out in the flavor with some burnt raisin character. Medium-thin body. Fair schwarzbier. I wish more American brewers would take a crack at this style.

hmm, well its pretty much black looking, maybe some creamy roasted chocolate things goin on in the aroma, really creamy and weird tasting, kinda bland fake chocolate feel to it. Not too impressive.

Tap, downtown Atlanta. Brown-black-red. Roasty, coffee, smoke, tobacco. Good smells, just, weak. Off-white head. Moderately sweet, lightly acidic flavor becomes a lightly sweet, lightly bitter finish. Medium body, watery texture, moderate carbonation. The bottom line is: lots of pipe tobacco in the flavor. Weird.
2.9 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
On tap at their Buford, Ga. location. Pours a dark ruby red fading to black with a slight mocha colored head. Has some fresh lake water accents to the aroma with a little bit of chocolate for good measure. Detect some brief chocolate notes in the flavor with some fruitiness and all around decent bitterness to keep it interesting. Slightly thin mouthfeel, Strong finish.
