Sample at the brewpub. The beer is a dark brownish-black color with a medium khaki head that dissipates steadily. Small patches of lacing on the glass. Aroma of roasted malt and hops. Medium body with flavors of roasty malt and piney hops that seem to cancel each other out more-so than complement each other. The finish is roasty at first and leaves a slightly resiny hops aftertaste. Decent overall.
