On tap at Stormcloud. Pours black with a light tan head. Roasty cocoa and dark malt aroma. Flavors of roasty, smoky coffee and cocoa, pepper notes. As I continue to drink it, I get only the slightest hint of heat from the peppers. Anise.

On tap at Stormcloud. Pours deep brown with a light tan head. Aroma is anise-led with roasty coffee. Flavor is again strong on anise with tangerine zest serving to emphasize it, later incorporating roasty coffee and cocoa. I do recognize how the tangerine zest works with the anise, and while it doesn’t appeal to me in particular, it’s still a solid beer.
