Bottle at Sander’s place, NYC. Breakfast beer! Pours black with a foamy, tan head. Aroma is true, pleasant smoke, rocks, and subtle rye tang. Flavor is alright but doesn’t quite live up to the nose. Light to medium sweet, fine roast and smoke, some slight tangy rye. Medium bodied with lively carbonation. Dry, bitter roast finish, light smoke, light ham, light burnt sugars. Alright.
