Sampled on draft at the brewery this beer poured a black color with a medium sized foamy tan head that left decent lacing. The aroma was roasty, woody and dry with moderate cocoa. The flavor was bitter, roasty, dry and malty with notes of wood, oatmeal, cocoa powder and vanilla. Medium length finish. Moderately full bodied and smooth. Decent.
