12 oz can from Boise Co-op. Silky black pour, thin skin of beige head. Aroma is coffee, although rather light. Taste is roasty bitterness, both coffee and malts. Chocolate is light or so well blended that its difficult to distinguish from the coffee, except for a hint of sweetness. Nice weight and feel.

Poured from can into tulip, good 2 finger dark tan head, great retention and lacing. Jet black in the glass. Smells of roasted coffee and cocoa. Taste follows the nose, nice roast, prickly carbonation and a good clean finish with residual chocolate on the palate.

Imagine drinking coffee with at little beer in there. Still enjoyed it though, but will be some time before I choose to repeat.
