3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Bottle. This one pours a clear, dark golden body under a small, creamy, off-white colored head. Decent aroma, syrupy fruityness and caramel. Maybe a bit on the sweetish side. Syrupy and fruity flavor too, some caramel and hops, not much bitterness. Low on bitterness in the finish too. Maybe this style of beer doesn’t need much bitterness, but I don’t think there’s sufficient in this one. Medium body with pleasant carbonation. An easy drinking beer, but a bit on the sweet side I think. 091016

Draft: Sweet nose, dark amber color with small white head. Smooth, medium body with light carb. Malty front with nice hoppy finish. Citrus overtones. A nice brew, but not as "dark" as they claim.
