2 month old pint can A: Poured clear deep gold with 1/2 of bubbly white head. Long retention and thick clumpy lacing. S: Bitter roasty black coffee over grassy herbal hops and lightly sweet grain. T: Twice bitter with coffee and herbal hops. Roast coffee goes well with the toasty malts. The grassy hops do seem to be the odd man out but a bit of caramel finally settles in and it sort of works. M: Medium body with average carbonation and a lightly sticky finish. O: I'm no fan of the style but interesting flavor balance makes this probably the best one I've had.
