Atomic Age (Ghost Atomic Age)
Adroit Theory Brewing Company

Thanks to Ozzylizard for sending this.
Gorgeous RIS. Pours 40W motor oil black. Fills the glass with a glossy obsidian shine. Deep cocoa colored head forms a firm head that elevates nearly 2 inches, slowly recedes to a ring with a thin film cap, and leaves lithe layers of lacing.
Nose is timid in its delivery of diluted coffee and roasted malt. Really not much else here.
Flavor follows the nose. Slightly more developed in the roasted malt notes but not sweet by any stretch. Again, the coffee comes off as diluted and lacking depth and any distinguishing contributions.
Mouthfeel is perplexing after witnessing the glory of the pour. A tad thin for style. Mildly bitter on the finish. Appropriately low carbonation.

Final impression and summation: 3.5 (After deducting 0.25 point for an undated can) Uncredited label artist. I assume this is fresh because it was just shipped, but that doesn’t excuse the undated can. This is a very weak example of the usually high quality RISes that Adroit Theory produces.
