16oz pint at Beer Revolution Oliver, during their Half Pints tap takeover.
This beer appears a solid black, with sparse basal cola highlights, and one finger of thinly foamy, generally soapy beige head, which leaves some decent broken wall lace around the glass as it slowly dissipates.
It smells of bittersweet dry cocoa powder, lightly roasted caramel malt, day-old coffee, a bit of lactic sweetness, and earthy, musty hops. The taste is big and chocolaty, with a hefty coffee sidekick, some untethered milky sweetness, a sturdy, ego-confident caramel malt, and some understated earthy, weedy hops.
The carbonation is quite sublimated, and stays that way, the body a stodgy medium-heavy weight, and mostly smooth, with an attendant low-key creaminess. It finishes off-dry, the cocoa, coffee, and subsumed caramel/toffee essences all running the table.
A decently coffee-stricken stout, the base beer obviously capable of sustaining the hits here. Big and malty, chocolate, caffeine, and creamer running amok, really, what's not to like? Half Pints would do well to bottle this.
