From the label“Pronounced 'Roar-Shack' and clearly named after the infamous ink-blot tests, this layered Brown Ale accommodates a complex collection of characters and flavors. We partnered with our friends at Bird Rock Coffee Roasters to aid us in selecting only the finest of their roasted beans to enrich this multi-dimensional and yet still refreshing brew. So clear your mind, take a sip, and say exactly what you see.”
