16 oz. can traded by tfontana. Canned in November?? This get lost somewhere? Aroma and soft dark fruit, molasses, earthy malt. Flavor is a softer rendition of the aroma. Molasses and dark fruit upfront with a dark bread character. Good.

Can pour from trade with Johnnnniee--thanks, John! Appearance is dark, dark brown (mahogany with light source directly behind) with decent sparkle, finger-width khaki head with poor retention and no lacing. Aroma is strong earthy roasted malts, nuts and mild chocolate. Taste follows aroma though not as strong/rich but with some dark fruit and brown sugar, as noted in earlier review. Mouthfeel is light-to-medium bodied with smooth, frothy texture, soft-to-average carbonation and crisp finish. Overall, appearance and aroma are great but taste and mouthfeel lag a bit.

Can from the source. Dark brown with beautiful garnet highlights and brilliant clarity, bubbly off white head dissipates quickly. Bready toasty maltiness with a firm earthy floral hop aroma and flavor to counter. Clean tasty well made beer!
