Wow, predominant roast, the carbonation on my first two was great. The second was a little lacking. A decent dark beer. Purchased at my visit to the brewery.

Oct 3, 2008 Draught @ Volo. Dark brown with red tint. Malty, mild, with minerals in the nose. Solid smell. Thin and mild body. Coffee notes. Clean and good even if not much going on. Sessionable.

Sep 17, 2008 Draught at Volo, September 2008. Poured black/dark brown, no head. Aromas of caramel and molasses through the malt. Mouthfeel is light and a bit watery. The flavour was very short lived, very little finish: malted caramel, coffee. No complexities.

Pours opaque black with a small tan head. Smells very nutty and malty with the kent goldings hinting at the back. The taste is pretty malty which then turns into a nutty flavor which continues on to a very nice deep coffee. This beer is pretty badass. The mouthfeel is very full and rich and the aftertaste nice. I really like it.
