Jan 30, 2009 Bottle: Cola-esque pour with a frothy head. Sort of got the steamed vegetables aroma off of this one, ew, some dark chocolate in the flavor and a misplaced sense of fruit cloaked in burnt coffee. Would like a re-rate, not sure what was up with this one.

Jan 25, 2009 Picked up a single 12-oz bottle at Three Cellars in St Francis, WI. Pours a semi-clear dark brown brew with a thin off-white head that dissipates to a thin white ring. Aroma of toasted dark malt, some chocolate, roasted nuts and a touch of coffee. Taste is medium bodied with flavors of toasted dark malt, some floral hops, chocolate and some dark pitted fruits. Finish is a little thin with a short lived toasted dark malt aftertaste.
