Pours a deep brown-black, with massive, lasting head. Aromas include licorice, roasted grain, chocolate, coffee, tobacco, leather. Flavors include all of these, plus a touch of "homebrew" aftertaste that surprised me and I didn’t really care for. Up to that point, I thought this was a pretty solid black IPA, but it needs a bit more development.
