Nitro – overly bitter and garlicky hops clash with an otherwise smooth, chocolaty, roasty malt base – the malt is just hard to enjoy because the hops are so intensely bitter, and the bitterness lingers on the palate for-freaking-ever – twigs/wood, garlic, citrus – none of the hop character works with the malt – did they even think about the hop bill on this one?

Tap @ Black Bottle. Pours a bit hazy, dark reddish appearance with a dark brown head. Somewhat floral, a bit soapy, light chocolate, rye, just a touch fruity, herbal aroma. Roasted dark chocolate, light caramel, rye, a touch fruity, floral hoppy flavor with a floral, somewhat bitter finish. Alcohol is hidden well. Not bad.
