Bottle from Chalet Party Shoppe in Goshen, IN. Pours brown black with a frothy tan head. Aroma of fruity ale esters. Flavor is sweet and vinegary, with no dryness and little dark roast. This one is infected. I am not having much luck with this brewery. They need to step up their QC.

22oz - Aroma or roasted dark malts, cheap coffee, oats and molasses. Pours dark brown with a small brown head and good lacing. Flavor matches aroma with a little more intensity and bitterness. Palate is dry and ashy. Not bad but nothing special.

Pours a dark brown color. Has a small citrus hop aroma to this as well. I was looking for more in this but I guess I was wrong.

Poured dark - definite dry roast that had an almost lemony sour flavor - personally didn’t care for it but like Patrick said, could be a bottling problem or something

Pours pitch black with very little head and lacing. Aroma dominated by chocolate and espresso. Thick mouth-feel with lots coffee and roasted malts. finish’s with a chocolate blast. Looks like I got a rare good bottle
