7.1

Appearance - 8 | Aroma - 7 | Flavor - 6 | Texture - 8 | Overall - 7.5

Pint split two ways at the brewery. Appearance is opaque black with light sparkle, finger-width khaki head with good retention and nice soapy lacing. Aroma is strong roasted malt and bit of milk chocolate. Taste is subtle sweet and bitter roasted malt. Mouthfeel is medium side of light-to-medium bodied with smooth texture, average carbonation and crisp finish as taste with lingering roasted bitterness. Overall, not complex and taste is less strong than aroma.
