Sampled from a 22/oz brown bottle this beer poured a very dark brown color with orange highlights and a small foamy beige head that faded and left minimal lacing. The aroma was tangy, sweet and malty with a bit of fruity hops. The flavor was roasty malts and a bit of fruity hops. Medium length finish and medium body. Meh.

Bottle@yesprs - black pour with beige head. Aroma and taste is a mix of roasted malts, and tropical piney hoppy notes, some grapefruit, pine needles, very nice but not quite roasty enough for it to be right up there.
