Oct 1, 2008 Pours with a tan head and cola color. Smells of roasted malt. Taste is a little hops on the front with a chocolate bitterness. This is very drinkable and feels medium bodied. I’d drink this again.

Sep 28, 2008 Bomber, pours a cola colored body with a fair sized fuzzy tan head. The aroma was more impressive than the flavor, but very good overall. Smells of chocolate, some roastiness, nice malts, slightly fruity. Caramel slightly roast malt flavor with some fruitiness. Med-mouthfeel, fairly lush and smooth.

Sep 22, 2008 12oz bottle. Deep brown-black opaquenesss, with some stained glass red around the edges. Roasty chocolate and malt characteritics, with a delicate sour edge to it. Creamy and rich, but with a watery easy to drink finish. Encompassing almost all the ranges of dark beer taste, this one is a true classic.
