Pours very dark. Light foam. Black licorice aroma. Not a great flavor. A little sour. Kind of rank. Tastes like spoiled fruit that's sat in the sun for 3 days. This was definitely made by Dark Helmet. Not much to like here. I'll drink it but I won't be happy about it. I changed my rating from a 2 to a 1. The warmer it got the worse it tasted.

No. Just .. no. I'm a fan of Triphammer. I can ride a bike to the brewery. Local guys with great beers.
*HOWEVER*
This one wasn't just a swing and a miss, nobody showed up to the field. There was no ball. I like black lagers. This one poured nicely but not fantastic. The look is as black and opaque as the heart of an ex, exactly how it should be. The smell wasn't "damn, I gotta get my face into that!", but it wasn't fully off-putting either. The five swigs I could stomach had a reasonable mouthfeel. Much as one would expect from a higher-end lager.
...and then it all fell apart. The taste doesn't hit until it grabs the back of your tongue. Did I say grab? Ok, more like molests. Honestly, the taste is astringent and ghastly. "Putrid" completely belies the 20IBU of this brew. I think that's pretty accurate since what I'm tasting isn't bitter. I was rather thankful it didn't linger. I'm fairly sure one of the core ingredients is a massive pile of footrot. This tastes like my feet smelled after my last two day hike in very warm, humid weather. I had to throw those boots out. I'll be doing the same for the four-pack of Revenge of the Scroob .. other than the five sips I could muster through to warn others.
