Bottle shared @ MTG II tasting at Rich’s Welfare Pad. Pours black, thin tan head. Aroma is After Eights dark mint chocolate. Taste continues with quite a prominent mint chocolate character, more so than I recall having from any other brewer in fact. Smooth mouthfeel. Rather delicious.

Bottled at TNOD(U)RBSG2016. Black with beige head. Aroma of After Eight. Sweet with full body and clean, rounded mouthfeel. Tastes like After Eight. Nothing else. Warming bitter finish. Depressing. Do beer drinkers really prefer beers that taste like cheap candy?
