Draft at El Toro. Nose is chocolate, light berries, roast, and a hint of char. Black with a medium, long lasting,8 heavy lacing, cinnamon tan head. Flavor is chocolate, roast coffee, white pepperiness, and a hint of bitter. Actually named after a student of mine from 15 years ago who works at the brewpub.

Tap at the brewpub. Pours dark brown/black with a creamy dark tan head. Aroma is "dark" - almost berry. Full bodied. Creamy. Smooth. Hints of coffee. Lots of smooth burnt malt. Lots of something like dark fruit - tho not at all sweet. Finishes dryer than not with hints of chili (which is not an ingredient - I asked). It is fairly complex and quite tasty.

Tap. Pours opaque black with a large creamy brown head that slowly dissipates with nice lacing. Aroma is roasty, coffee, touch of cocoa. Flavor is the same, light sweet, light bitterness, flavor profile a bit muted. Full body, creamy mouthfeel. Light warming on finish. Bitter far finish.
