    Sad to see. I bought all the last of the large format bottles of the good stuff at 4.00 ea. on the closeout rack, drank all but one, yummy. Won't be trying the 12 oz.ers, that's for sure. Thanks for the heads up.

    What the hell may as well have another.


    I've passed this one up on the shelf several times for no known reason but due to that 2-2 halftime score of the SuperBowl I'll have plenty of new beer options to last until the BIF starts.
    Pours a pitch black opaque with a finger of tan head, pours thick like motor oil.
    Smells of dark roasted coffee, bitter chocolate, and dark malts.
    Taste follows, strong coffee(like the sludge left if I forgot to turn off the coffee pot before going to work because I only finished half of the pot before I left), baking chocolate, dark roasted malts, and a touch of dark fruits.
    Full bodied for sure, thick yet smooth feel with a hint of alcohol.
    Overall tasty, I could see this being a staple in the beer fridge from here on out.
