Sample at the brewpub. Pours black with a medium tan head that recedes steadily. Rings of lacing on the glass. Aroma of roasted malt, coffee and touch of dark chocolate. Full-bodied with a roasty character consisting of dark malt, bittersweet chocolate and coffee. The finish is malty with a roasted coffee aftertaste. Above average overall.
