Tasting Notes:
Pours brown to black as expected with a nice two inch head that recedes slowly. Slight bitter chocolate with cocoa finishing with dry coffee notes. Medium to heavy mouthfeel with some cream, smoke, and lingering burnt coffee notes. Only knock on this is that the flavors occasionally come across muted and the mouthfeel light. I liked the toasty, dry finish however, and at under $10 a bomber. it's well worth grabbing a couple (one for now, one for the cellar.) High fives to Sierra for the top notch packaging. Happy Birthday Sierra!
