Can purchased from local beer store. Poured a nearly pitch black color with a huge, foamy dark tan head. Aroma was lots of roasted, dark malts. Some bitter bakers chocolate notes. Flavor was really creamy, lactose chocolate, with a decent malt finish. Had this on a 90 degree night and it was still really refreshing.

Can: Banana, lemon, and clove nose, evident but not strong. Clear amber, thin head. Lemon and wheat flavor, mild peppery coriander finish. Medium body, easy carbonation. A good attempt at the style from an American brewer.
