A clear dark bbrown stout with a light moka head. A good mil chocolate or moka coffee aroma. In mouth, a lighter stout, with nice chocolate malt, but again, very thin, which seems the recurring theme at this place. Light bitterness lingers on. On tap at brewery, July 28 2007.

Clear light brown ale with a thin off white head. A light diluted malt aroma. In mouth, a rather diluted brown ale, like something they rinsed from the fermentor with water, and put in a keg. Watery like crazy. On tap at brewery, July 28 2007.
