Single can from Jungle Jim's
Pours a black color with a massive khaki head, great retention. Beautiful lacing sticking to the glass in big patches.
Subtle roast flavor with notes of licorice. There is quite some bitterness to it accompanied by the hops.
Medium body with good carbonation and milky smoothness of the lactose.
Definitely a nice beer to try but this will not purposely return to my fridge.

This is very nicely done for this style ... Drinking it on a hot muggy day likely not the best idea (my bad) ... Still, I like it...creamy and flavorful and "roasty" .... Thumbs up

Look - Fantastic Black body as hoped with a great tan head and sticky lacing and film
Smell - roasty vanilla orange smell, very original
Taste - Bitter chocolate vanilla orange with a slight sweetness
Feel - medium full body with a nice crisp carbonation
Overall - So Different and very interesting. Not sure I'd get again though
