Appearance - Very dark brown. Appears opaque. Think brown head that dissipates quickly.
Smell - Dark molasses scent most prominent.
Taste - Begins with a dark but sweet malt. Dark chocolate or molasses with a touch of something like banana. Finishes with a prominent but not overwhelming floral hop. Alcohol is noticeable. Interesting.
Mouthfeel - Creamy. A little alcohol bite.
Drinkability - Very enjoyable beer that's crafted for savoring. This brewer makes some darn fine beers and this is one of them.

pours reddish-brown, almost ruby. tan head. lots of lace.
definitely lots of chocolate in the nose and mouth here. oak follows in the nose, but i don't get it much in the taste. caramel and a bit of spice from the rye.
viscous and thick mouth. creamy.
mighty fine beer. this one sat for a year on the shelves and doesn't show any wear for it. kind of surprising this one made it that long, because i'd want this around all fall.
