On tap @ Station 26. Pours a reddish brown appearance with a tan head. Quite roasty, dark chocolate, kind of chalky, herbal aroma. Low sweetness. Notes of plum, anise, dark chocolate, and figs. Pretty good.

Tap at the brewery - black pour - sweet aroma of anise/licorice, dark chocolate, with balancing roast and a touch of smoke - slick, almost oily texture - there is a base of earthy, dry, almost whiskey-ish golden promise character, which adds a nice dimension to the more traditional, sweet notes of raisin, anise, and chocolate - mild acidity on the finish cuts the sweetness a bit - another solid offering from this brewery.
