On nitro at Old Chicago- Lakewood. Wowzers! Well deserving of its reputation. Slick and smooth , creamy and velvety. Beautiful roasty notes throughout, made slick and creamy by the lacto. Perfecto!

I actually enjoyed this one more than the nitro version I sampled on tap. Dark black color, great head and lingering lacing. Smells of dark rich roast coffee with just a hint of chocolate. Tastes of dark coffee, dark chocolate, caramel and malt with a little biscuit and brown sugar. Moderate mouthfeel, slightly creamy, nice amount of carbonation and smooth aftertaste without bitterness. Very tasty and easy to drink, not overly sweet at all.
