Sample at the brewpub. The beer pours a brown-black color with a medium tan head that recedes gradually to a film. Small patches of lacing on the glass. Aroma of roast malt, blueberry and chipotle peppers. Medium-bodied with flavors of smoked malt, chipotle and blueberries. The finish is smoky chipotle and berries. Interesting flavor combination, and a good beer all around.
