Bough this while on vacation this summer.Was looking forward to this after having the trail mix brown ale and enjoying it. Still sitting on a bottle of Parsnipitty.

Opened this bottle at fridge temp.No date to be found. Poured into a 1/2 pint nonic. Head immediately foamed up to fill most of the glass. Once settled the beer had almost no smell, faint roasty smell was there if I shoved my nose into the glass. The taste was horrible. Metal taste with a finish of extreme bitterness, not a good hop bitterness. There is obviously an issue with this beer. I cant get the taste out of my mouth even after having a fresh arrogant bastard. I have to rate this one of the worst beers I ever had.Both of us agreed to this review and all but 5-6 sips was poured down the drain. I would try this again as I am sure it has to be better than this bottle.

Bought a bottle at the Beer Shop in East Longmeadow. Beer pours with a dark black appearance and a lightly brown thin head that stays on throughout the evening. Aromas include some yeast, coffee, chocolate, and some minor hops. The taste is crisp with a bitter dark chocolate and bready flavoring. Mouthfeel is ok; not too carbonated or creamy, but a decent balance between. Overall, not too bad, especially in terms of its look and mouthfeel.
