16 ounce can, canned on 03/21/23. Served in a snifter, the beer pours dark brown/black with a couple inch frothy tan head that stuck around a long time. Lots of lacing. Aroma is nice, the brew smells like coffee, dark chocolate, roasted malt and some dark fruit. I think the taste is similar to the aroma, but there's also some caramel noticeable too. Mouthfeel/body is medium/full, it's slick and a bit creamy with a good amount of carbonation. I thought this was a good overall coffee stout, worth a try if you come across some.

 

From the 16 oz can in a snifter. This solid little imperial pours a rich
obsidian with a nice head of light brown foam that settles to a thick ring,
thin dusty layer, and sports some nice lacing. Nose of heavy coffee, heavy
char, and caramel malts. Flavors hit the mark with dark heavy coffee, char,
subtle cream, and sweet caramel malts. Mouth feel is full, smooth, lightly
creamy, coating, and finishing with full bitter malt finish.

Love coffee stouts, this one is verging on over the top on the bitter scale.

Overall, nice but could use a touch of balance.

Cheers
