Overall pleasant, full-bodied malty dark lager. The espresso scent prepares you for the slightly bitter aftertaste, but is balanced well and goes down smooth enough. Pity it doesn't have more flavor... it doesn't try anything to push the envelope beyond an average dark lager.

Strong AF! The nose hits you like a leather bag full of hops as you pour it. The alcohol bites at the tongue as you drink it. And you are rewarded with a subtle sweet fruity taste for all your troubles. Its a darker ale than I imagined it would be, red tinged. Its going to be a chore to drink it all, but I ate some spinach and feel up to the challenge.
