On tap at the brewpub.
Appearance: dark amber to brown color with a bar pour's kind of slimming head, no lace after dissipation
Aroma: toasted nuts, some coffee tones, cocoa powder and some grassy to earthy hoppiness
Flavor: makes a decent effort to mesh the prior mentioned aromas to a semi-sweet to toasty and roasty blend and does a decent job of doing that; slight aftertaste of nuts and some grassy to earthy hops
Texture: light to medium bodied, sessionable; fair smoothness along my tongue; finishes crisp with the nuttiness
Overall: I thought I heard the brewer tried to go for a "dark lager" with this but with the way this beer looked, it came up a little lighter than expected.
