Bottle. Poured deep dark brown with lasting tan head. Much lacing. Chocolate and coffee aroma, with malt notes. Nice body coffee, bittersweet chocolate. Lasting coffee and roast finish. A winner

This black ale poured with a thin tan head and a rich malt aroma. It’s slightly carbonated with a rich malt flavor and a long bitter finish.

A cool bottle thanks to footbalm. I guess they are going for a hippie/ weed smoker market, plus the brewer is in Weed, CA. Anyway, pours a dark brown with a thick black sludge, a medium brown head. The aroma is mostly coffee and sour notes. The taste is quite nice; a rich coffee and chocolate mix, some roasted malts, a hint of bitterness and nice smooth earthy finish. Very nice.

#504 (Eddie Murray) Aggressively sedimented at the bottom of the bottle, and perhaps consequently more thick and stouty than you expect with a Porter. Maybe more like a Great Lakes Eddie Fitz. I’d have to re-try to be sure I didn’t get an off bottle.

12oz bottle. Pours a deep brown with a small beige head, some lacing. Lots of toffee, caramel, and coffee on the nose. A lot more spice than expected as well. Brew had a finish of bitter chocolate.
