On tap at ORB 7.17.20 - part of the Black is Beautiful benefit collaborative happening nationwide. This one, I'm happy to report, is stellar.
L - Dark chocolate-mocha, great dark foam, great head, very nice dare I say "sexy" lacing as it goes down the glass?
S - Great blend of expected roast, chocolate, molasses, malts, and some good balancing dry hop whiff.
T - More of what the nose promised; it's a big beer without barrel aging, always nice to find, and it's rich, rich, rich - roasty coffee brownies in your mouth without the weird cloying vanilla sweetness of a BA stout. Damn, this is good.
F - Mouth filling joy; great balance, not really boozy at all (and that's dangerous at 10%). Too drinkable, ORB, just too damn drinkable.
O - A wonderful example of why ORB should be brewing more NON-IPA variants on a monthly basis. This one is a killer. Fantastic cause, fantastic beer. Better than other examples (n=18) of the BiB benefit beers.
