On tap at the brewery taproom in N. Vancouver B C.
Near opaque reddish-brown body with a durable, tan nitro head.
Mild aroma with more hops than expected. This is reversed in the flavor: The flavor has moderate strength and high bitterness for style, with a load of bitter chocolate and burnt toast.
Overall. OK

473ml can poured into Sam Adams pint glass.
Pours nearly black with cola edges when held against the laptop screen, with half a finger of creamy mocha head that leaves spooky cave entrance lace as it recedes.
Smells of roasted chocolate malt, creamy coffee and faint vanilla. Detectable hops.
Tastes of crumbly baker's chocolate, more creamy coffee, soft licorice and vanilla.
Feels light and lively. Medium bodied with sturdy carbonation. Finishes mostly dry.
Verdict: Recommended. A pleasant and easy milk stout.

473ml can - the chocolate used herein appears to be of the roasted cacao nib sort, being as it comes from the East Van Roasting Company.
This beer pours a pretty solid black, with prominent basal cola edges when held to the light, and three fat fingers of puffy, rocky, and somewhat creamy brown head, which leaves some stellar snow rime lace around the glass as it slowly and evenly subsides.
It smells of well-roasted and bready caramel malt, crackery milk chocolate, a twinge of cafe-au-lait, some mild black licorice notes, and tame earthy, weedy, and grassy hops. The taste is grainy caramel malt, bittersweet cocoa powder, ethereal day-old coffee grounds, vanilla pods, earthy anise spice, and still understated leafy, citrusy, and floral hop bitters.
The carbonation is adequate in its frolicking frothiness, the body a so-so medium weight, and mostly smooth, just a few specks of char seemingly getting into my teeth when I make this consideration. It finishes trending dry, strangely, the roasty and toasty nature of the chocolate having pushed out much of its inherent sweetness.
Overall, not a bad flavoured stout, the cocoa and lactic qualities putting in a hard day's night. Easier to drink than one might have imagined, given the thorough lack of any clammy or cloying sweetness measures, so bully for that, I say! Now how about that cozy fire up to which it is suggested that I cuddle?
