Pours a dark, cola-brown/black, with smallish tan head. Aroma is cinnamon, chocolate, some chili. Flavors follow, with some leather, coffee, a touch of dark fruit. Mouthfeel is very thin. This beer really needs to be doubled or tripled to really standout.

Can at home. Ugly fruit juice appearance, virtually no head. Aroma is fruity, tropical fruit hoppy. Flavor is malts, fruity hoppy, pleasant balance between citrus, tropical fruit and bitter hops. Quite well done. I like this one even though it looks awful.

The palate is well carbonated and light to medium bodied. Papaya forward with a light guava note with a balanced grapefruit bitterness followed by more papaya on the finish.
