look: 4 | smell: 4.5 | taste: 3.5 | feel: 4 | overall: 4

22oz bottle poured into my Terrapin pint glass...

Pours pitch black with a bunch of light tan head, four fingers worth. A decent amount of lacing is left behind...

A nice mix of bitter roasted malts and sweet, citrusy and somewhat piny hop oil...the hops outweigh the malt but the balance is very nice...

Taste follows the nose...although the bitter roasted malts outweigh the hops this time. Bits of chocolate and coffee and just an overall bitter burnt grain taste mixed with a hint of citrus hops that are generally resinous and sticky...

Medium bodied with good carbonation, somewhat slick on the palette and a touch of alcohol presence...

Not a bad beer at all, I wish the hops were more prevalent in the taste as they were in the nose, but still a pretty decent beer...

Serving type: bottle
