Wonderful beer. Glad I ordered this.
Went to a new restaurant with my wife today, it was really a nice place. It was an Italian joint and they had a huge wine list. So I was like "What kind of beers do you have?" Turns out they have a good list of beers too.
I went with this because I’d never had it before.
Poured a dark brown with practically no head. My wife had a pepsi, and this was a couple shades darker than the pepsi.
Smelled of roasted malts and earth, tasted much the same though a little more pronounced with the malty taste.
Great mouthfeel, went down smooth with no unpleasant aftertaste or dryness.
Really glad I tried it, I’ll be trying this one again in the future. Went great with the porterhouse steak.

Sep 29, 2008 Poured a nice brown color with an off white head. Aroma was some caramel, chocolate and a little smokey. Flavor was really sweet, not too much to pick out, a bit of caramel.

Sep 27, 2008 12 oz bottle from LooseCannon. Cola pour with a tight tan head. Sweet caramel nose, a whiff of smoke, lightly burnt. Sweet caramelly flavors, roasty and smoky. Nice.

Sep 8, 2008 Another good dark beer! Pours a nice dark brown color with slight head. Smells great--malts and seet combined. A little disappointed in flavor--expecting a nice nutty or fruity taste (maybe even chocolate) and got little of this. However, overall it is a nice, drinkable dark beer.

Sep 6, 2008 12oz bottle. Pours dark copper in color with brown head. Aroma sweet and malty. Taste roasted malt and hoppy bitter with bitter finish.

Aug 29, 2008 Bottle. Pours a blackish brown with a slight head. Nose is roasty and malty. Flavor is slightly sweet and not as roasted or nutty as the color and nose might suggest. Actually this had a very light body but coinciding with that was not much a flavor punch. Actually, this be could be a session beer, but I am going to stick with just the one.
