Can thanks to Ken at L42. It pours cloudy dark brown with a medium light tan head. The aroma is rich roasted malt, charred pine, bright, raw hop greenness, cocoa, orange sherbet and rocky road. The taste is dry, good deal of bitterness, charred pine, peppery spice, resin, orange peel, dark chocolate, cocoa, coffee and some raw hop burn with a dry finish. Medium body and moderate carbonation. Pretty punchy, but decent stuff.
