Poured from the tap @ Great Northern. Very dark brown with small light tan head. Fairly roasty, some raisin sweetness, mild dryness, decent.

On tap at Garden Path - Bellingham, pours black with a large tan head. Aroma is full of roasted barley, plenty of earthy hops, and some cocoa. Flavour is more like a classic RIS — with loads of roasted malt, plenty of hops, and a touch of espresso and cocoa. Rich, roasty, nicer hopped with a creamy mouthfeel. Excellent.

Can. Black with a brown head that fades to a fat coat. Aroma of mocha, roast, singed dark sugars. Only medium bodied. Sweet at first but coffee and bitterness seem to dry things out. Delicate lightly roasted coffee flavour is lovely; roast and mildly spiced bitterness linger for ages. Hints of Indian sweets. Dangerously drinkable. Very nice, if slightly too polished for my tastes.
