Jul 18, 2008 Huge thanks to I think Gililard, but thank you who ever! Lightly oxidized aroma followed by coffee, roast malt, chocolate and cocoa. The body is dark brown with a thin brown head. Sweet pumpernickel/brown bread flavors in the fore. A touch boozy. Chocolate, molasses, and bitter roast notes in the finish.

Dark brown black with a thin watery beige tan head and no lacing. Smell is Chinese food and sweet malt - huge soy sauce notes in there. Flavor is overly sweet and malty. Palate is nearly creamy but falls short. Overall, just a bit too sweet for me but not horrible.

Pours a nice dark black with small short lived light tan head. Smell is dark fruit, light roastiness and a good amount of soy sauce and molasses. Taste is bitter dark fruit with some ashiness and soy. Lingering burnt flavor. Medium to thin body with medium carbonation and a tiny hint of alcohol in the aftertaste. Decent.
