MWBF 2006: Smells like cold coffee, with a touch of roasted malt. A tad acrid and bitter with roasted malts, not much in the way of hops. Generally also lacking in any malt sweetness to hold it up at all. Quite thin actually. Brown with light head. update from sample at brewery: unchanged rating, still thin with coffee and cocoa.
