Dec 30, 2009 Bottle pours a dark mahogany body with a tall khaki head. Weak aroma has some cocoa and a hint of dark fruits. Light medium body seems a bit thin. Taste has some dark roasty bitterness with hints of coffee, nuttiness, and bittersweet chocolate. Plenty of powdered cocoa flavor going on here with a bittersweet malty finish. Not bad, but not very memorable.
