On tap at the OBBS. Opaque walnut color with no head. The relatively heavy aroma greats you with roasted malts some dark fruit and some lightly sweet cola hints. Not a bad flavor (and somewhat meeting the commercial description) of nuts, raisons and hints of spiced chocolate. Unfortunately there is some kind of sickly sweetness that really distracts from the overall taste. The body is very creamy and full. I picked up a growler of this for a friend, as it seemed right up his alley. I’ll let you know what he thought (as he does not rate on line).



Book_M_Dano said he opened the growler to have a glass one evening and before he knew it...he had finished the entire growler. Very good in his opinion (3.6-3.9).
