Rather boring. Bottle is more interesting than the beer.

Pours pitch black with a big fluffy light brown head that coats the glass the entire way down.
Smell is chocolate malt, lots of pine and resin, herbal, not alot of roast, most just a wet chocolatey IPA style. The flavor is alot more chocolate, roasted oats, resin and earthy pine, a little coffee. This is much more like an IPA, but the mouthfeel is thick and velvet. It coats your mouth and drinks very heavy, more like a porter.
This is good, but a bit confusing. Nothing wrong with that, but it jumps all over the place style wise.
