Bottle at ChrisO. it pours clear amber with a small white head. The nose is toasty, grainy, cereal and brown bread. The taste is toasty, earth, brown bread, leather, grain and cereal with a short, dry finish. Medium body and average carbonation. Simple malty beer, but not the worst thing out there!

Bottle shared at a tasting at troubles’s place. Thanks Tal L. for this bottle! Clear amber with no head. Weak aroma with caramel and a bit of metal. Sweetish flavor, weak, with a bit of caramel, a metallic hint, and a drier finish with a faint bitterish hint. Light-bodied. Pretty non-offensive.

A fair share worse than Hakim Stout. Basically a rust bomb in a bottle. Pours that colour too. Sweet and rusty finish. Bottle at Dukem.
