This beer is awful. It's a black licorice bomb with just a touch of marshmallow character. It was a drain pour from me.

This one pours a decently dark black color, with a small foamy head, and not much lacing.

This one smells weird- I get chocolate and graham crackers, but there's also a distinct overriding rotten banana aroma on the nose. I'm a little worried that something is off with this can.

Luckily, I get no rotten banana thing in the flavor, but there's an indeterminate staleness here anyway- I think the graham crackers are adding some weirdness. There's a nice toasted coconut character, though, and a creamy vanilla finish. The base adds the typical chocolate sort of thing.

This is light bodied, and a tad thin, but it's pretty drinkable.

There's definitely some weird stuff happening with this can, but there's enough good stuff going on here that I enjoyed it nonetheless.

16oz can dated 02/28/2018 poured into large snifter “SHOTGUN RESPONSIBLY “

Happy Easter! Heavy pour is dark brown and leaves a dense foam topping that just chills for a while. Graham crackers are heavy in the nose. So much so that I can’t get past it to pull out anything else. I’ve never had the best sniffer and can’t pull out a ton different things from most beers, but I’m pretty sure this one isn’t my fault. This is as much a s’mores Girl Scout cookie in beer form as I could ever imagine. Mallow, graham cracker, chocolate. Bitter coconut is also present as this kicks it’s initial chill. Very thin and not as sweet as I was expecting. Would love to try an imperial version of this.
