Doom Metal (Ghost: Doom)
Adroit Theory Brewing Company

Nice English style Bitter!!! Poured from a 16 oz can into a pint glass, this beer starts out an almost clear copper color. With subsequent pours, it is more of a hazy, muddy brown color, Medium sized foamy white head and some lacing on the glass. Aroma and taste are mild but still flavorful. Slightly sweet malt, mild herbal bitterness and a nutty flavor. A nice take on an English style. I drank it a little too cold for maximum appreciation of the flavor, but it was still enjoyable. Mouthfeel was light, and malty with a little hoppiness to keep it interesting. A good session beer.
