L - dark brown, not quite black. Ever-so-slightly off-white head that dissipates quickly.
S & T - slight roast, nicely bitter, but the forefront is dominated by something you might not be able to place quite that easily. A strange, not unpleasant fruity sweet-sour taste. I found it tasted a bit like overripe kiwi, the ones that get almost starchy and strangely sour-sweet that makes you go 'this is probably way too ripe to be enjoyed, but I still kinda strangely like it'.
F - nothing of note. Just a nice, light, low-ABV beer that still manages to be very flavorful.

O - a very fun tasting experience. This is one of those beers that inspires discussion (and division) about the taste even amongst die-hard dark beer lovers. It has that strange overripe kiwi-note (or at least, that's what it tasted like *to me*) that's not wholly unpleasant, but probably not for everyone.

I recommend it.

 

On tap at American Flatbread Burlington. Clear orange. Smells of bready malts, a little caramel, and some earthy hops. Tastes of earthy hops that turn to bitterness immediately. Bitter throughout. A little bit of bready malt. Slick mouthfeel. Solid bitter.

 

 

 

 

Really just an average beer.
