Keg at Mongoose vs Cobra. It pours cloudy rich orange with a decent white head. The aroma is earthy, toasted grain, cereal, hay, slightly medicinal and funk. The taste is crisp, dry, tart, quite fruity, lemon peel, minerals, sherbet, granny smith apple, good mouth - pucker, sour kumquat and orange marmalade with a dry, tart finish. Medium body and moderate, prickly carbonation. The nose is fairly tame, but it tastes rather nice.

Can received in trade from blutt59, thanks for the opportunity! Pours a solid dark brown bordering on black with a decent sized bubbly tan head that quickly recedes.Creamed coffee on the nose with faint hints of chocolate and caramel. Slightly acrid roasty flavor with a bit more caramel and chocolate rounding it out. Pretty tasty sweet stout.
