Stephen HarrisAcceptable18 Mar 2015 Brown (rather than the advertised black). The tasting notes have a long list of interesting ingredients, but the one this beer tastes of is Crystal Malt. Do they use Crystal Malt back home in Virginia? I suspect not. Disappointing, but redeemed slightly by hints of black pepper.
