look: 4 | smell: 3 | taste: 3.5 | feel: 3.5 | overall: 3.5

Opened a bomber to share with friends.

A - Dark. There was a little head, but it died off quickly.

S - Very piny/hoppy...with a hint of sweetness.

T - Smooth. Hoppy/Piny not as strong as I expected, but still prominent. Very unique flavor that grows on you with each sip.

M - Creamy feel.

O - Again, very unique. Not something I could drink on a regular basis, but would be great on occasion.

2013 - Craft Ale House, PA
ST-Draft for Goose tap takeover.
A-dark, stout, not much lacing, typical
S-Smell was sweet stout mixed with a strong chemical smell. It smelled like ground black pepper was poured on top.
T-followed the smell, good basic stout, but then some weird syrupy strong cough medicine taste and more black pepper.
M-apart from the taste it was smooth and creamy.
O-I had a sample luckily, not sure if I could have finished a whole bottle or full pint. I've been told the recipe has changed as they moved back to brew this again after some time off?!? InBev may have messed this brew up a bit. I have a 2011 bottle and I will compare that to this fresh tap version.

Serving type: on-tap
