A dense, frothy pure tan head with solid lacing on a dead black body. Nose is a bit ominous - pungent, fresh ground coffee, slightly sweet chocolate, malt, and some hop bitterness. Massive, nasty, smooth, fresh and earthy, all at the same time. The initial tastes leads with molasses and burnt butter, followed by fresh ground roasted coffee and unsweetened chocolate. Dark berries with a hint of sour emerge as the taste progresses. I'm getting ripe plums in the background. A thick dry ashiness, reminiscent of the Mikkeller George, reels in the more opulent tastes. Beautiful.
