Sample at the Pittsburgh location. Deep dark brown color, almost black, with a medium tan head with good retention. Rings of lacing through the glass. Roasty malt aroma with espresso in the background. Full-bodied and smooth with a nice array of coffee, malt and chocolate flavors. The finish is thoroughly malty with a good coffee aftertaste. Well done.

Pittsburgh location in Monroeville,
Pours a deep ruby brown tan head forms nicely with a decent amount of lacing not bad. Chocolate malts with a decent backing of hops solid aromatic qualitites. Creamy dark chocolate deep roasts great brew I must say. Mouthfeel is medium in body has a sharp spritzy carbonation. Drinkability could very well be a go to just lacks some body and flavor to do so for me.
