12oz bottle. Toffee brown body, looks filtered. Really dark for the style. You could have told me this was a hoppy brown ale. Not really one of Millstream’s finest. Like a heavy handed amateur hour Arrogant Bastard at times. Not so bad I guess, just an old school Double IPA.

12oz bottle pours a murky black with some quickly fading off white head. Nose delivers what the name promises, quite a bit of malt and molasses, big berry notes, not sure if it’s easily raspberry, some blueberry and some red grape too, plenty of coffee bean there, some toast. Flavor follows, lots of jammy character, coffee bean, molasses, toast, some chocolate, some red grape. Full bodied, sticky finish. Kitschy, but decent.

Fairly clear golden with a white head. Loads of malt and toasted bread aroma. Medium sweet notes. Medium crispy body. Flavor has plenty of sweet toasted bread, light grass. A decent Pilsner but nothing remarkable.

Bottle. A- Black licorice, tobacco, coffee, roasty, cocoa. A- Black color, dark liquid, brown head. T- Roasty, cocoa, anise, tobacco, coffee, malty. P- Full body, average texture, average carbonation, smooth finish. O- This was a pleasant surprise. Didn’t expect much but got a lot. Nice rich and deep flavors with anise and tobacco seeming to come through the most on the nose and a complex taste. Enjoyed this one well enough.
