Bottle. Aroma is roasted malt and chocolate. Surprising lack of strong coffee aroma. Appearance is nearly opaque dark reddish brown with 2-finger width frothy light brown head with nice lacing. Taste is light to medium sweet chocolatey malt flavor with subtle coffee flavor. Palate is medium bodied with moderate texture, average carbonation and balanced sweet/bitter finish. Overall, a nice beer that looks good and tastes good but could be a bit stronger all around. Not as coffee dominant as I would have liked.

Flavor: It has a nice, minimally sweet, coffee flavor.
Palate: The body is light-medium, nice mouthfeel, and a dry finish.
