They’re not kidding, this beer is black. Like Guinness black. Same color head as Guinness too, but not nearly as thick. Damnit, it kind of smells like Guinness too. Medium body. Very roasted taste, with a coffee-ish sort of bitterness to it.
The coffee-like flavors are reminiscent of some incredible Green & Black’s dark chocolate I had last week. Finishes clean.
