Sampled on draft at the brewpub this beer poured a black color with a medium sized creamy beige head that faded but left decent lacing. The aroma was malty, a bit woody, grainy, a touch roasty and had a fig note. The flavor was rather bitter, dry and woody with dark fruits followed by notes of grain, must and nut. Long finish with growing bitterness. Medium body. Ok.
