4.3/5  rDev -1.8%
look: 4.5 | smell: 4 | taste: 4.5 | feel: 4.5 | overall: 4

Poured from a 22 oz bomber into a pint glass. 2011 release.

A - Thick and black. Incredible fluffy tan head considering the density of the brew below it. Head dissipates fairly quickly, but the lacing sticks around.

S - Huge roasted coffee, dark fruits, chocolates, burnt firewood

T - Smokey char and dark chocolate dominate. Coffee notes not as prevelant as the nose dictates, but still prevelant. Subtle hops make an appearance without distracting.

M - Thick and rich.

A great take on the RIS style.
