16 ounce can, no canning date that I could find on the can or label. Served in a snifter, the beer pours dark brown/black with not quite an inch light tan head. Head retention and lacing are both decent enough. Aroma is nice, the brew smells like cocoa, hazelnuts, coffee and roasted malt. I think the taste is similar to the aroma, but there's also some dark bread and earthy flavors noticeable too. Taste is more roasty/bitter compared to the aroma which I thought was sweeter. It does get a little sweeter tasting as it warms but it's still roastier than I was expecting because the aroma led me to believe it was going to be a sweet tasting brew. Mouthfeel/body is on the light side of medium, it seems thin at times but it's coating and easy enough to drink. Worth trying a can if you're able to, especially if you're into roastier porters.

Just lol.

I was ecstatic when I poured this and smelled it. It smelled world class.

The appearance is translucent coffee. It looks like tea.

The smell is marvelous. Roast, cocoa, coffee. Absolutely stellar here.

The taste is very similar to founders breakfast stout if it were diluted by 25% with water.

The feel is like drinking water. Arguably the saddest body of any beer I've ever drank let alone a porter.

Overall - it's insane how many misses I've drank from birdfish. There 20 minutes from me so I keep desperately trying to support them but goddamn this is garbage.
