Stark black with a surprisingly active dark tan to brown head, puffing up like a muffin top, and retaining fairly well for the style. After a sip or two, it accumulates a sticky residue all over the glass.

Smell is peanut butter chocolate wafers with a lil Swiss Miss marshmallow.

Taste is wayyy fucking sharper though, super sugary, and the booze only exacerbates that. Perhaps that's just vanilla, a sort of rum soaked nature. It's also pretty viscous and sticky, with the nuttiness still giving peanut more than almond, to me, but the sweetness seems like it goes to my head instantly. That is a fucking sugar laser beam to the dome, and not in a pleasant way.
