1554 Enlightened Black Ale
12oz bottle poured aggressively into a snifter. Black body with a thin tan head. Smells of cocoa with a bit of fruit. Comes out nicely as it warms up. Taste is very subtle but nicely balanced. Burnt bittersweet chocolate, fruit, sweet malt, hint of hops. Mouthfeel is dry with little carbonation and slightly thin. Overall, this one drinks nice and easy.
