Black Orchard
Found this bottle at the local Green's for 7 dollars so I thought I would pick it up and give it a shot. Served chilled and poured into a large wine glass, this one was consumed on 1/16/10. The pour was huge, massively carbonated with head filling three quarters of the glass on the first pour.Dark black in color and the head a mild tan, it looked the part right away. Head faded back and left really no lace in its wake but kept a nice cap on top. Aroma was light,nearly non existent at times, but when it was picked up it was light oats, touches of dark fruit and a hint of cocoa. Again though the big problem here was how light it came across. Flavor was more of the same, it just was too light and when you picked it up it was going in too many different directions which really caused it to come across as slightly a mess. But Mess is a strong word it was more bland then anything. Still well carbonated but I just could not get past searching for the flavor. Overall the weekest of what I have had from the bruery by far.
