Big Bottleshare at Craft Islington. Thanks to Manny G. Opaque dark brown beer, tidy pale tan head. Palate is airy and mildly dry, reasonable fine carbonation. Weird sourish dark chocolate. Modest coffee. Tangy dark fruits. Dry finish. Sour chocolate linger. The overall sour chocolate grates on me.

Bottle at Craft Islington, big thanks to Manny G. It pours hazy dark brown with a small tan head. The aroma is sweet, tangy, sour, roasted malt, vanilla and fizzy cola bottles. The taste is crisp, tart, tangy, earth, vanilla, cola, sherbet, lemon, Granny Smith apple and some candy. Medium body and moderate, fizzy carbonation. Plenty of sour sweet character. Its all about the fizzy cola bottles!

Bottle @ home with jcnielsen. Thanks Justin! Pours a deep brown / black appearance with a brown head. Aroma has heavy vanilla, chocolate, caramel, coffe, booze / whiskey. Medium body. Moderately sour. Low bitterness. Off dry. Flavor is somewhat like dessert with kahlua, coffee, cream, and vanilla. Finishes sour and a touch sweet. Not my favorite style but this is OK.
