May 3, 2008 On tap at the brewpub during DLD ’08. Pours black with a thin skin of beige bubbles at the surface. The nose is dry, peaty roasted malt, cocoa and coffee. Medium to full-bodied and oily with soft prickly carbonation and a warm, roasty finish. Peaty chocolate roasted malt with a mild leather-like note at the finish. Another fine brew from Three Floyds.

May 1, 2008 Draft… DLD’08… Black with a small, creamy, khaki-colored head. The aroma is an earthy bundle of canvas and leather with toasted nuts and, of course, chocolate leading the way. Full-bodied with a skim-milk mouthfeel and fizzy carbonation. Bittersweet mocha flavor. Chocolate covered espresso bean finish. Yum!
