12 oz bottle from Largiari! Thanks! Nose of coffee, coffee, and more coffee with a little caramel in the background. Very dark brown with a small tan head. Flavor is white pepperiness, coffee, and a little bitter chocolate. I would love to be able to have this available locally for a session beer, but 3000+ miles?

Bomber. Pours bright, deep mahogany into an english pint. Off-white head with medium retention recedes to skim surface. Sweet, molasses and whisky-soaked pit fruit aromas. Thin and soft with scotch and oak flavors upfront turning hot in the lasting raisin and plum finish.

Scored this 12oz bottle via trade. Pours a opaque, sorta thick black that had a nice mahogany red around the edges with a creamy, slighty off white head. Aroma is fairly average, sweet, caramel, dough, maybe a bit of vanilla. Flavor is nice, starts with all those toasted malts, nuts, dark chocolate, coffee and ends with some sweetness, milk chocolate, caramel, brown sugar. Finish has a lingering toastiness that is pleasant and warming.
