Light coffee and roast flavor with a smooth long finish. Light on body, but not on flavor. Noble Tettnang hops give a slightly spicy hop character. Three time gold medal winner.

Taster at Eruption. Brown pour, spotty head and lacing. Aroma is toasty malts, sweet. Taste is sweet with the roast coming out a bit more, burnt toast.

On tap at the brewery pours out a dark brown topped with a small tan head. Nose is nice light ash roast malts and some grass. Taste is more of the nice light roast malts and a touch of coffee.

On tap at the Mountain Brewers Festival 2013. Pours a deep brown color with a medium beige head. A sweet nose of chocolate and some dust. The flavor is light roast, chocolate, light caramel perhaps. Clean and tasty. Very rich.

On tap at the Barley Bros Brew Fest, Meridian ID. Deep clear amber with a modest light fan head. Not exactly "black" . Aroma is "amber" Flavor is a little "black". Some dark roared notes here but not quite up to what I expect a black lager to be. Clean and smooth...

Bottled. A hazy dark amber beer with a thin orangey head. The aroma has notes of caramel, fruits, and caramel. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt, metal, caramel, and a bit of fruit, leading to a dry finish. Thanks pinball for sharing.
