Had on tap at Union Ale House Weymouth
Appearance: no head, clear, dark-brown in color
Smell: roasted malt and citrus hops.
Taste: roasted malt, some chocolate and big citrus hops especially at the end.
Mouthfeel: sweet start- bitter dry middle--very bitter finish, light body-borderline watery, moderate carbonation
Drinkability: This is not a bad beer, especially if you like hoppier Black IPAs. However, I have had better in the style. This is a sipper. I would love to see a bit more full body and a touch more malt. The Tap make some great beers, but this is one I will pass by.

On tap at the brewpub the afternoon of Night of the Funk 2010.
Poured nearly black with a two-finger light tan head and a few lace rings as it went down. The nose had a nice pine-hop component along with a good dose of roasted malt.
The flavor mixed the pine and roast pretty well. A bit of an earthy touch there as well. Slight coffee beans in the taste plus a pretty hefty dose of bitterness in the mouthfeel. Medium body. Drinks pretty well and was one of the better beers Amyliz4 and I had from them that day.
