Can. A- Roasty, malty, slightly tart. A- Black color, dark liquid, tan head. T- Sour, subtle cocoa, malty, dry. P- Medium body, average texture, average carbonation, sour finish. O- Pretty sure this one was slightly infected because the sourness came certainly unexpected. However, it wasn’t a bad sour, it actually was fair. Not good, but drinkable.

Medium brown, thin head, toasty aroma, a bit thin, touch of fruit. Ok, maybe a bit thin, crackery, dry finish.

Tap. Pours murky mahogany, medium creamy tan head, dissipates slowly, great lacing. Aroma is roasted malts, slightly smoky, toffee, black bread. Flavor is about the same, lightly smoky, bready, light sweet, not much bitterness. Not a bad beer.

Can at the Denver Bicycle Cafe. Poured a deep mahogany with a broken off white head. The aroma is weak malt. The flavour is medium bitter with a watery malt metallic hoppy palate. Quite drinkable and deserves a better rating.
