16oz can served in a tulip. Canned on 26 JAN 2022. Received a few days ago from @Coronaeus in a LIF associated with NBS BIF #14.
Vigorous pour gives me a hazy dark amber liquid with about 3/4" of head that collapses into a thick layer with some pretty heavy lacing up the sides of the glass. Smell is moderately grainy / toasty, a little bit of toffee and nuts, mostly a nice grain tea aroma.
Taste is surprisingly soft. Leans more toward lightly toasted bread than grain tea, sweetness comes across through the nuttiness, not really getting a toffee any more but there's something else adding to the sweetness. Slowly start to get a bit of a nut-related bitterness out of it as well, which keeps building.
Mouthfeel is leaning a bit toward the thick side. Overall, it's a nice beer and I like it. Not 100% comfortable with the total ripoff of Fuller's label design.
