Black with a half finger of dark mocha head with better than average retention for this series. It settles into a thick, lasting wisp and crown that leaves close to no lacing.
Chocolate and oak stand out most in the nose.
Added to the taste is a mix of distant caramel, almond and cherry cola with a burnt toast finish. Not much alcohol to speak of.
Chewy mouthfeel cut by a fair amount of fizz.
This variant doesn’t clear the high bar set by its peers. It has a much more restrained aroma and taste than most Ralphius. Nothing awful, but it’s lackluster in comparison to most Ralph offerings.
