Bottled. A hazy dark amber beer with a thin lazing beige head. The aroma is sweet malty with strong notes of fruit and caramel, as well as light notes of prunes. The flavor is sweet malty with strong notes of caramel, and light notes of butter, leading to a lightly bitter and grassy end. Not your usual California Common.

33 cL bottle. Pours black with quickly disappearing head which looks brown. Fruity and malty aroma, wineous notes. Taste is hard roasted malt blended with bitterness and liqourice. Chocolates appears once the warms up. Finish is dry bitter. Good, but not the best there is of this type.

Bottled. It pours so dark brown it is almost black, with no floaties and a dense brown head. Coffee, licorice and burnt or heavily roasted malt in the aroma, some vanilla too. Maybe a hint of alcohol too. The flavor is coffee, licorice, tar and burnt malt. Full to medium body and quite dry. Long coffee-ish finish with hints of licorice. Very nice, but I would loved some fruity hops in it as well. (061102)
