MatSciGuy (629), Rosemount, Minnesota, USA Apr 20, 2008 [bottle] Poured a deep ruby color with a moderate tannish head. Aroma was subtle. Some dark fruits, a little bit of coffee, and some yeast. Flavor was a little roasty with some chocolate. Reminded me of a bittersweet porter. Pretty light mouthfeel, and overall a very drinkable, refreshing dark beer. ansermadide (496), Kyle, Texas, USA Apr 18, 2008 Updated: May 11, 2008Pours a deep black/brown semi-clear color with a lovely tan head. Has a sweet flavor, tigles on the lips. Its light-medium body is great and easy to drink and very satisfying on the tongue. Wonderfully tasty and a safe bet when you find it on tap. ebrowner88 (113), Rice, Minnesota, USA Apr 18, 2008 Pours a deep copper brown (almost black ale?) 1 finger beige creamy head that sticks around. Sharp sweet nose with a hint of raisin at the back end. Semi-sweet malt with hints of roasted dark chocolate and slightly dry hop finish. Medium body, mouth feel is spot on. The best I have ad from this brewer. A great 100th beer! garretjax (103), Colorado, USA Apr 16, 2008 A clear deep mahogany color and a light tan foamy head. Chocolate and roasted malt aroma, some coffee. Full bodied and nice carbonation. Flavors of dark chocolate and aromatic coffee. Drier finish with a brisk bitter bite at the end. mmather (113), Colorado, USA Apr 16, 2008 from tap and bottle. pour dark and black with a thick dark head. Bready and sweet malty aromas. All the color and flavor of dark malt without the roastiness of a stout. A great beer that is unique Carl99Fan (186), Suwanee, Georgia, USA Apr 13, 2008 On tap...pours black. Creamy head. Great appearance. Roasted flavor with coffee and chocolate most prevalent. Wonderful thickness...food like quality. A sipping beer. Most enjoyable. posikyle (165), Alabama, USA Apr 11, 2008 Eh, a very forgettable beer. Pours a beautiful black color with a very dense, thick head and a malty aroma. However, taste was incredibly thin. Very little of anything except watered down malts and something else I couldnt quite place. Decent, but definitely wouldn’t buy again. swanmann (304), Norman, Oklahoma, USA Apr 10, 2008 The bottle poured nearly black with caramel tones and tan foam. I get mild spicy notes, definitely toasted, chocolatey, and mild dark fruits arriving with a bit of warmth. Medium dry finish, flavor of burnt bread crust, palate a bit thin, but it’s nice.
