Dark Horse Reserve Special Black Bier Ale
2.72 out of 5.00 | Under Par

Thanks to Beerinator as part of XBIF 39.

Pour is jet black with a coffee colored head that is gone pretty quickly. Looks a bit flat to be honest.

Aroma and tastes are somewhat befuddled to me with too much going on. There’s a fine line between complex and just a bitter, smoky, high alcohol cocktail and this crossed the line several times for me. Lots of important components there withour doubt, but it wasn’t very well constructed in my opinion.

Certainly in the large department with tastes and body, but I thought it was somewhat unbalanced and just a bit too big in several areas.
