On tap at the Craft Beer Picnic. Dark Ale 5.5% pours a dark brown with a big creamy beige head. The aroma is a chalky woodsy almost tangy nuttiness with hints of cocoa. Light bodied with a round carbonation. The taste is bitter dark chocolate - think 70% + cacao, a bit of roastiness and a chalky aftertaste. Quite bitter and a bit acrid, possibly too much black patent malt? Overall it is OK.

Draught at Craft Beer Live 2014. Cloying, syrupy nose of burnt caramel. Sweet caramel flavor, a bit astringent in the malts and rough.
