3/31/19 (Chicago)): $6.50 (with tax and tip) purchased 10/14/18 to go at Half Acre. 16 ounce canned on 9/6/18 poured into snifter glass. Dark black pour, creamy light tan head, dissipates leaving light bubbly lacing. Milk chocolate, cinnamon and malt the predominate aromas. Strong cinnamon taste emerges, backed by creamy chocolate. excellent well blended stout, though on the sweeter side than the offering Original Reaper offerings. Very creamy texture, carbonation holds well, creamy rich mouth feel, easy smooth drinking. Overall excellent stout!

Tasted in a Spiegelau stout glass from a 12 fl oz can on October 15, 2018. The vanilla, cinnamon and almond flavors all come through. Goes down smooth.

Canned 9/14/18; drank 9/27/18 @ the Yarchives.
Black/brown appearance.
A violent pour yielded a nice dark tan head; a thick curtain of tree-rung lace.
Cinnamon, graham cracker, cream & faint milk chocolate notes in the nose.
Creamy medium mouthfeel.
Cinnamon, cream & almond flavors up front; mild milk chocolate notes on the finish.
I'm not much of a cinnamon fan, but this is nicely balanced & enjoyable. I'd have another...
