16 ounce can, canned on 11/23/21, thanks to Brutaltruth for this one! Served in a snifter, the beer pours dark brown/black with about an inch or so tan head. Head retention and lacing are both pretty good. I like the aroma, the brew smells like burnt/charred malt, dark chocolate and vanilla. Taste is similar to the aroma, but there's also some dark fruit, earthy and caramel flavors noticeable too. Mouthfeel/body is medium/full, it's slick and a bit creamy with a moderate amount of carbonation. I thought this was a good overall brew, the age hasn't hurt it at all. Definitely would want to try this one again in the future!

4-pack of 16oz cans from Party Town.
Deep brown color with a finger thick mocha head.
Aroma of roasted malts, dark chocolate and vanilla.
Taste follows suit with a sight bitterness in the finish.
Full body, almost stout like, with a creamy mouthfeel.
Love it!

From the 16 oz can in a snifter. This excellent monster pours a dark blackish
brown with a very nice head of tan foam that settles to a thick ring, thick clumping layer,
and shows off some nice lacing. Nose of dark cocoa, molasses, and rich vanilla with
dark roast and moderate char touches amongst some brulee. Flavors knock it out of
the park with dark cocoa, cola notes, brulee, medium char, touches of black strap,
rich earthy vanilla, and brulee notes amongst the roast and caramel malts with a
touch of herbal hops. Nice mouth feel; medium full body, smooth, rich, lightly slick,
coating, light carbonation.
Overall---AWESOME!
Cheers
