Old review
22 oz bomber I got from Four Winds in Pensecola. Poured into a pint tumbler.

A: Actually poured a nice dark brown almost black as the name suggests. When held to the light it allows a nice amber hued light to come through. Has a nice off white head that diminishes to a top cap that produces some nice lacing. Good looking beer, kinda suprising.

S: Has a serious nuttiness to it. There are the aromas of malt and hops. There is a bit of sweetness that comes from what appears to be fruit, I assume this to be the soba. Weird smell but still good.

T: Taste is of some nice nutty malt, hops, coffee and bittersweet dark chocolate. There is some nice,somewhat sweet dark fruit. All of these flavors don't seem like they would have mixed well, but quite good.

M: The only thing that turned me a little off was that this beer was a little thin, and had a fizzy mouthfeel.

D: This is a good beer that I enjoyed drinking, but one bomber is enough for a while. Morimoto is my favorite Chef, but I may have to wait to have another bomber of this until I dine at his restaurant in New York. Not only was this a good tasting beer, I think it would be awesome to cook with.
