A- Tallboy pours into a can shaped glass with a motor oil black body and a nutty brown cap. The thick foam has a bubbly and creamy consistency with good retention. Sparse webs of lacing.
S- Rich darkness immediately upon pouring flaunting big coffee, chocolate and roast barley notes. Dark milk chocolate, baking cocoa, espresso, caramel, vanilla bean, burnt barley and cookies come to mind. Good balance between the sweet and the bitter roasty things.
T- Again the cocoa and coffee are most prominent alongside the toasted to roast malt profile. Vanilla joins the balance later in the aftertaste but it does well to play with the dark chocolate, dark roast coffee, roast barley, chocolate malt, toasted nutty and caramel notes. Moderately sweet but nowhere near other modern stouts.
MF- Light-medium bodied and honestly a bit more heft would go a long way with this flavor profile. Carbonation is also rather high and it has a foamy and creamy texture. Roasty bitter ending.
Really great aroma and a balanced flavor profile between the malts and the adjuncts. The body is a bit of a letdown but still holds up enough to keep this one stable and drinking well.
