Rutland Beer Works

Poured into a snifter, the pour was thick jet black. Basically, poured like motor oil. The color was the same with a nice looking finger’s worth of eggshell white foamy head. Mild lace was left. The aroma had the roasty boldness of Swamp Donkey with some milk and dark chocolate assisting in the balance. Oak barrel woodiness was faint in the background. The flavor yielded to the roast and sweet of Swamp Donkey. The aftertaste was full of the chocolate and the roast, once again, barrel is extremely faint. Some booziness in the finish. On the palate, this one sat about a medium on the body with a fair sipping quality about it. Mild carbonation. ABV felt appropriate as defined by the brewer. Overall, what this brewery does well.
