Deep brown color but the light passes through the center easily. Beige but small head. Minimal lacing.

More chocolate than mocha. Light chalkiness. I also pick up some iron.

Strong coffee presence with some weak milk. The body is thinner like the Irish versions. Higher carbonation than most stouts. Bitter finish almost like coffee grounds.
