12 ounce thanks to hershiser2! 6/25/22. I think there's an infectiion here. Can top bulged, looking like it could be explosive. Luckily not. Pours all head. Eventually settles into a hazy tan liquid. Aroma of coffee, pale malt. Taste is coffee, roast, pale malt. Flavors seem stripped out. Hints of green pepper. High carb. Definitely something amiss. Coulda been a good beer.

Draft at the Farmhouse location. Near black pour with a small beige head. Aroma is chocolate, roasty malts. Taste is rich chocolaty notes, minor almond flavors, licorice/anise and a mild sweetness. Somewhat boozy.
