2002 bottle found at City Wide Liquors in South Bend, IN. Opaque oily black with a smallish, fading rich brown head. It is leaving some rather nice lacing though. A swirl of my glass stirs up pungant hops that fade to rich dark chocolate and dark roasted coffee beans. The flavor works just the opposite. Upfront you get a short charge of creamy milk chocolate and a nice cup of joe. That is short lived because the hop flavor and bitterness are WAY over the top. So much so that it is a big turn off. The palate is rich and creamy. Crank back the hops a bit and we have a real winner.
