A - Served a dark black color with a finger of frothy tan-chocolate head. The head fades down slowly leaving behind lots of lace.
S - Aroma is full of roasted chocolate malts with some caramel, some light smokiness, and a bit of burnt smells.
T - Starts off with some roasted and slightly burnt chocolate malts with some light earthy hops. Through the middle some smoke comes through with a touch of bitterness. The finish mix of bitter chocolate with some roasted and burnt malts and some Belgian yeast.
M - Medium bodied with moderate carbonation. Feels smooth with a dry finish.
D - Very drinkable. The Belgian flavors were not very strong here and the hop were fairly mild. Fairly well balanced, but just a bit empty.

On-tap at Magnolia
Just about black in color with a big tan head. Smells roasty and slightly smokey, a bit musty, strangely. Not really any hop aroma to it. Smokey and roasty on the palate, no real hop flavor to it, either. At least it not buttery and metallic, but not really a "Black Belgian IPA" as described.
