Another ambor colored beer. This one has a larger head. Very dry and bitter. Pine and oak dryness, but I do not think this was barrel aged. Dry aftertaste.

Tap at Hammerheart. dry for a stout. Black, low carbonation. It does remind me of a dry stout. Some light coffee notes with roasted grain. The smoke is thee, but it is mild.
