Enjoyed on tap at St Vitus in Brooklyn, NY. I'm really liking this one. Appearance is a moderate pitch black with a thin white rim. Aroma is a nice mixture of dark chocolate and cocoa with a bit of lactose. Taste is fantastic, nicely balanced between lactose and chocolate. Good stuff!

Can shared at a tasting at Ariel’s place. Better Beer Of The Month Club. Hazy golden with a white head. Hoppy aroma with citrus, some tropical fruits and a bit of pine. Flavor is quite dry with a sweetish touch, fruity hops and a moderately bitter finish. Medium-bodied. Nice and refreshing.
