Sample during the "Uber-Kurt (10,000) Celebration" on 12/13/2014. This beer pours pitch black with a medium foamy beige head that dissipates quickly to an outer ring. Short strings of lacing on the glass. Aroma of chocolate, coffee and roasted malt. Full-bodied with flavors of chocolate fudge, black coffee and charred malt. The finish is chocolatey with a sweet mocha aftertaste. Enjoyable beer all around.

Growler from Blend Bar in Hamilton, NJ. Translucent dark brown color with a small creamy beige head. Rich cocoa malt aroma with nutty overtones. Upfront, earthy toasted hazelnut maltiness. Yes, you can taste the oats. Smooth and creamy mouthfeel. There is a nice influx of resiny hops in the finish. Long dry aftertaste. Quite a nice Brown Ale. Very flavorful and drinkable
