Honestly pretty solid and smooth - a lot better than the reputation that comes with the name.

Pint on tap.Sniff sniff...graham crackers and marshmallow fluff..not too much chocolate...but more of a malted malt balls. Flavor falls a little short of the original expectation I created in my brain. Its thin and a mild disappointment to my soul.
