Draft. I am absolutely sure I had this one, though my notes I’ve kept from my trips to Capitol City over the last year or so have disappeared. What I remember of it (I distinctly recall having a Wee Heavy on tap because of the "odd" name) is that it poured a brownish color, had a quite refreshing flavor. Notes of caramel, touch of alcohol. I’ll see if I can’t update this in the future.

Super dark brown colour with a thin light brown head. Sweet aroma of chocolate, coffee, plentiful sugars and roasted malt. Medium-bodied; Roasty flavours favouring sweet malt and some bittering qualities. Aftertaste shows the coffee and dark chocolate flavours while still having sweet characteristics. Overall, a nice beer-sweet and still roasty-well done and a good one to try this season! I had this from a growler purchased from the location in Shirlington (Arlington), Virginia by my sister's fiance. I tasted this on 30-November-2003.
