Archival review based on old notes: to redo once I sample again.

Aroma and flavor is dominated by cereal grain. Coffee and a bit of cocoa here as well. Mildly sweet with a finish that's too bitter for my liking. It's OK, but I don't think the particular grain bill worked for me. But props to them for trying given their gluten-free constraint.

A: appears opaque and dark brown, but if held to the light, it's crystal clear with very nice mahogany highlights; 1 finger fizzy tan head that receded to a wisp cap with a thick collar; no lacing;

S: mostly black coffee with a bit of chocolate behind it;

T: follows the nose through the middle; the finish is dominated by an off putting burnt character that makes you reach for water instead of another sip;

M: a little thinner than expected; moderate carbonation; dry finish;

O: nicely made beer, just doesn't taste good;
