Poured a brownish body with onefinger offwhite head that died a slow death with no lace. A thick, rich aroma, mostly bready and roasted malts along with some dark chocolate sweetness. Taste and mouthfeel is more of the same as the beer is thick, fullerbodied, not sticky nor watery but a nice thick smoothness, mixed roasted and breadlike malts for dryness with dark chocolate, toffee, and caramel for sweetness. Not typical of other DBs Ive had in terms of the dryness and the finish, which is less sweet more dry, and not much in terms of any fruit flavors at all (cant say I really got a hold of any dark fruits or minor citric hops) but still a pretty good beer.
