Sampled on draft at Bocktown this beer poured a dark brown-black color with a small soapy tan head that faded quickly and left good lacing. The aroma was very faint wood, cherry, roasty malts and chocolate. The flavor was bitter, roasty, smoky and woody with faint notes of cherry, port wine, tobacco and cola. Medium length finish and a fairly light to medium body. Decent.

UPDATED: JUN 30, 2010 Sample at Fat Head’s in North Olmsted. This beer pours a slightly hazed dark amber color with a medium thin light beige head that recedes steadily. Thick top ring of lacing with strings underneath. Aroma of grainy malt, ripe fruit and yeast. Full body with flavors of dark malt, yeast, sweet candi sugar and bitter hops. The finish is moderately bitter hops and spices with a malty aftertaste. Solid beer all around.
