Had last night, notes from December, 2003:
"Dark, caramel-y brown in color, with reddish foot and side, with a good, 1/4 " faint-tan head of foam with sticks it out for a bit.
Aroma: led by notes of nuts and toffee, rich and malty, but still well-hopped and full of character.
Taste: powerful carbonation on this one, bubbly through the mouthfeel, texture is tasty, toasty, dark. This is a lively brown ale, smooth in the extreme, ultimately drinkable. Gets a bit too sweet and cola-ish for my own tastes.
but if you're merely searching for an easily drunk, enjoyable-enough beverage to drink the night away with, the Messiah will do."
