struck oil

I felt like it was time for a nice black beer and one stood out immediately:
Chatoe Rogue.  I'm not protecting innocent or guilty, at least on purpose

As you can see, it's a big bottle, and a true black ale in the glass.  I was surprised that hardly any head appeared at first. It has a sweet malty smell when the bottle is opened, and at first tastes sweet, but there's an aftertaste almost like a rauchbier.  It mellows into a chocolaty flavor after a little sitting time and is oddly headier when warmer.
You can pretend you're a robot drinking oil

Fills that glass, like, four times
