Can from Oliver's Beverage, Albany. Opaque dark brown with good-sized head, excellent retention and nice soapy lacing. Aroma is strong roasted, earthy coffee. Taste follows aroma. Smooth texture, medium bodied, soft carbonation and finish as taste with lingering roasted bitterness. Solid!

On tap at Nags bar and Kitchen Oneonta NY
Just about brilliant deep amber color with a decent sized white head that shows moderate retention. Bready toasty with bits of earthy spicy hops. A bit too much diacetyl leaves a slickness and some bitter butter notes.
