Bottle 35,5 cl. Courtesy of SecretSanta himself. Pours a very dark brown with a tint of red and a beige head. Aroma of licorice and roasted malts. Solid body, roasted malts, dried fruit and again licorice. Dry finish, but a bit on the sweet side - no malt astringency. Subtle. 100410

Draft at OF. Opaque brown-black with a steady off-white to beige head. Sweet aroma. Roasty, yet watery and drinkable. A pretty nice Black Ale, above par for Stevens Point. Actually does the style justice. World class, maybe not, but still a fairly respectable offering.

Not really a wheat ale, more reserved like an actual hefe butr without all the spices. Smell is clean and slaggy rendering. Gunk on bottom of bottle. Decent carbonation. Slighrly tart, but hjust barely perceivable. Thin head. looks like a hefe with swirls in there. After having point wit I was looking forwarde to ths. Not quite as good as the wit but certainly noteable for a friendly easy beer. No real personality on the finish except well behaved.

Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a dark brown color with a small beige head. The aroma was tangy, malty and a touch roasty with light notes of floral hops and coffee. The flavor was dry, roasty and bitter with a light floral hop presence. Medium length finish. A bit thin in body. Mediocre.

Refrigerated bottle poured into a shaker. Pours a hazy light orange with small off-white head. Aroma is hops and body is pretty good. Taste is light corn malt followed by bitter harsh hop aftertaste. Ultimately I won’t buy this again.

Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a hazy dark yellow color with a medium sized yellow-white head. The aroma was skunky with hints of citrus underneath. The flavor was tart, citric and yeasty with a light Sweettart candy presence. Skunk again shows through. Medium finish and medium body. The probably would have been a fairly nice beer if not for the skunking.
