On tap at the brewpub, listed as 4.3% abv and IBU20. Smells of very soft molasses and brown sugar. Has a darker brown body and soft white foam that is gone too fast. Flavour is a very awkward mix of watery malts that really tastes like a newspaper from 1986 Soviet Russia dropped in a fishtank and then used as an ashtray. Mouthfeel is way too watery for what it purports to be, no sharpness nor crispness, the people who designed this should be sent off to the gulags. All of this is bad it is just not a good sales pitch for dark beer. James Caan in his 1981 epic Thief had a good sales pitch in that diner scene; this isn't on the same level.
