2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20 hellbilly (2857) - scottsdale über alles, Arizona, USA - JUL 13, 2010
bottle from tops consumed 4/25/10.
hazy crayola brown color with a soft off white head which quickly fades away.
odd aroma of co2, umami, brown sugar, raisins, earth and dusty pickling spice.
the palate is on the sweeter side though it finishes dry and slightly bitter. the flavor is a mix of the aroma and musty dampness, artificial sweetener and yeast which wants to linger into the aftertaste.
medium bodied and dull in the mouth. 6/3/5/3/12/2.9

Pours dark amber with white head. Micro sized bubbles retain well.
Nose has a pleasant funky baked dessert component. Reminds me of dark german chocolate cake with raspberry filling. Glazed donuts too.
Palate is raisin like, sweet, juicyfruit gum, and a nice sourness in the mix.
Finish is sweet and sour.
