Abundant beige foam in the Sam Adams glass with very dark brew. Decent aroma of grain and grass. Sudsy and mouth filling with foam. Dark roasted malt flavors but not charred. Modest hoppy bitterness. Flavors of alfalfa, cereal, and dark caramel. Not very sweet but malty. Hints of coffee and chocolate in the aftertaste. From the 16 oz can purchased at O'Shea Brewing. Dated 02/20/25, a year old! Seems to have lasted fine.
