Pours an opaque black colour with reddish tint near the bottom of the glass. Head was finger sized, tan and nutty. Wood, soft smoke, and black licorice flavors, mouthfeel was light and creamy- however taste was slightly metallicy near the finish.

Fourth stop during May ’07 brewpub tour, on tap at the Hayward brewpub this beer pours a black brew with some red highlights and a foamy tan head. Good retention and lacing. Aroma of strong coffee, apples and dark chocolate. Taste of mocha and chocolate barley malt. Some bitter aftertaste.

Dark roasted malt nose on this dark brown pour. Body had an oatmeal flavor ruined by the ever present apple in the mUskie beers I tried. On tap at Muskie Capital.

(Tap) Pours black with small tan head. Not as strong as a typical stout. Coffee and toffee notes with a slightly sweet and dry aftertaste.
