Pitch black pour, minimal tan head. The aroma is big dark malts, light smokiness, fruitiness. Medium to full body. Creamy palate. Caramel & roasted malts form a strong malt fist at the start of the taste. Additional molasses, dried fruit, warming booziness. On ending all the power of 90 IBU shows. The aftertaste delivers some pepper spiciness. This brew is not shining brightly. It is just convincing by its power and excellent balance.
