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

Taster pour on tap at the brewery. Appearance is totally opaque black with no sparkle, ring of off-white head and minimal soapy lacing. Aroma is roasted malt, a bit of toffee. Taste follows aroma. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with thick, frothy texture, average carbonation and sweet finish. Overall, it doesn't deliver everything in the description but is still quite good.
