From a growler filled about an hour ago. Pours a clear dark brown color with a medium tan head. Decent head retention. Aroma of huge earthy and pine hops, roasted malts, smoke in a combination that sadly is mildly reminiscent of tar. The taste is roasted malts, citrus, earthy and pine hops. A bit of sweetness. Better than the aroma thankfully. Medium bodied. Average carbonation. Slight lingering bitterness.
