The pour was a'ight. Fairly dense tan head and crazy lacing. As you drink, it looks like the sides of the glass are made of foam. This is also absolutely the darkest of black. No light can pierce it. The aroma is malty, and, GASP caramely. More coffee in this than even Old Leghumper, though. I must have been in the mood for caramel and coffee today. The taste is pretty damn awesome. I'm not quite sure what all of the flavor notes are. I really tried to pin it down, but it was really hard to do so. There's a lot happening, but it's not bad. Just confusing, I guess, if you're trying to describe it. It's like, it feels somewhere between malts and hops that isn't easy to distinguish. There's a tartness to it, but it feels more fruity than hoppy, although there are definitely hops in the finish. There's a lot of malts going on. It's pretty yummy, truth be told. I can't quite pin down WHAT it tastes like, but it tastes good. 4.5/5.0.
I got a bunch of O'Fallon beers when I was down Joplin way. Great ****.
