16 oz can poured into a tulip pint glass. Pours nearly pitch black with a moderate head that fades to a ring of tan bubbles. Aroma and taste are coffee, dark roasted malts, vanilla, and sweet maple. Mouthfeel is decent but a little bit on the thin side. A tasty beer but not overly complex or memorable.

On tap at Tap and Mallet in Rochester, NY.

This one pours a dark black color, with no real head or lacing.

This smells just too syrupy sweet for me, as there's slick chocolate syrup, sweet maple, and not enough coffee to balance all that out.

I expected a bit more out of this one. The sweetness is too high for the lighter body here, as it just feels muddled and unbalanced. The coffee does not play a huge part here, as it's just mainly sweet milk chocolate and sweet maple. The lower carbonation seems to amplify the sweetness.

This is medium bodied, with very little carbonation, and a flabby/slick/syrupy mouthfeel.

This was pretty disappointing, unfortunately. I expect better from OH.
