Apr 22, 2009 Pours a dark brown, nice tan head with some decent staying power and lacing. Tastes a lot like an Young’s DC.

Nice beer, but Youngs DC still wins out in terms of this style for me. Pours dark with nice beige head. Body is silky with big dark chocolate and roasted coffee flavours. Not bad.

Apr 19, 2009 Had this one bottled, thanks Slothgar! Opaque, dark brown pour with a long-lasting tan head. Milder nose than I would have expected, a touch of barbecue sauce, smoke, and sweet, bready malts. Flavor is quite malty, plum. Milky mouthfeel. Actually disappointingly mild.

Apr 18, 2009 More hops than I would’ve expected, and less chocolate. Obviously an ale of reasonably high quality just the same.
