Boris pours black and opaque like a moonless sky over Siberia. Eight different malts bring a complex aroma and flavor of chocolate, coffee and roasty sweetness. And just in case the winter gets too cold, we brewed this giant spider to 10% abv. So grab you snifter and ushanka and enjoy.

Sample at GABF 10/08/2016, thanks to my sis for assistance with note-taking. Inky black color with a medium tan head that diminishes gradually. Small patches of lace. Malt, chocolate and coffee aroma. Full-bodied with flavors of charred malt, coffee and fudge. The finish is roasty with a malt and coffee aftertaste. Pretty good overall.

Bottle from the Craft Beer Advent Calendar
Pitch black color, medium sized head. The aroma is mainly dark bread. Solid body, although the alcohol contributes to keep the sweetness feeling down; dark chocolate character; a bit leathery, with hints of oak and vanilla; smooth final.
Excellent.

12fl.oz. bottle. From 2015 Craft Beer Advent Calendar. Pours an opaque black with a small, short lived, brown head that leaves spotty lacing. Roasted malt aroma with dark chocolate and coffee. Sweet flavour of roasted malt, dark chocolate, licorice, molasses and coffee with a hint of alcohol in a dry, slightly bitter finish. Full body with a thick, oily texture and soft carbonation. Nicely done.
