This beer is very well balanced. There is never an explosion of hops, malt, chocolate, coffee, yeast, or anything else that might turn people off. It should be appreciated by everyone, only the weakest of beer drinkers will shun this brew. There is a slight chemical aftertaste, but barely noticeable. Overall, well done.
