It pours clear black-if-not-for-the-persistent-ruby-tint with a nice, creamy head that settles from a couple fingers to a constant film. Okay retention; lovely lacing. The aroma has an almost-sharp earthy, spicy bite along with coffee and general round roast smells you'd expect. The flavor follows right along. It is not overly sweet, tobacco, dark chocolate, dirt-rye bite in the finish, some leafy hop bitterness. It is a rich, medium-bodied beer, but despite that--and its darkness--it is very drinkable and quenching. Quite a nice feel for something with 5% (thanks, rye!). There is a fabulous bite to it that practically forces another drink, all while cleansing your palate with rye and hops.

This is a really nice American brown that kind of straddles Porter and/or stout territory. Good lookin'. The aroma and flavor are both rich and complex without losing their refreshing nature. Bitter chocolate, earthy rye, smooth coffee and nuts. I really enjoyed this and will definitely pick it up on sight going forward.
