      As black as it gets. Good brown head. Licorice aroma. Thick, sweet, very bitter, lots of licorice flavor. Roasty at the end, but sweet all the way through. Doesn't have the alcohol character of an Imperial Stout. "Winter 96-97" special beer.

      Bright tawny golden, moderate head. Citrusy-spicy hop aroma on a biscuity malt background. Medium body, fairly high carbonation. Nice fresh slightly perfumey hop flavor and somewhat bigger than moderate bitterness. Mild tasty caramel and biscuit malt background.
