Poured half from an undated 16oz can.

On the pour the liquid is thick and oily coming out of the canwith a solidly brown 1 finger head that quickly dissipates to a still brown covering on top and ring around the glass. The body is solidly black and not a lot of carbonation is visible on top.

Aroma is sweet and boozy almost similar to bailey's with a much darker chocolate nose. Some dark fruit/figgy fermentation notes are present adding to the sweetness. The aroma is heavy chocolate roast molasses and light fermentation just smacking you in the face this one is BIG.

Flavor follows the aroma almost to a tee followed by a lightly hoppy but mostly roasty bitterness that leads the way into a big funky choclatey and lightly figgy sweetness. The aftertaste is chocolatey malts woth a hint of the figgy notes sticking around. Some booziness is present in the flavor especially as the beer warms giving this beer even more big presence. A lot of dark esters mixing with alcohol and chocolate on this one with some necessary balancing bitterness. It's interesting but not an everyday beer.

The feel is thick big and almost overwhelming. Everything about this beer is extreme. About the only thing they didn't do to intensify this beer is barrel aging, and it almost feels like a barrel aged beer. I think theyightve tried can conditioning as my coworker who was drinking out of the can was unpleasantly surprised by a very thick layer of sediment at the bottom of the can that made the bottom of the can almost look like mucky water. If it weren't for the surprise this would be a fantastic big dark beer for the colder months of camping but the sediment was a little scary at these levels. Possibly Graham crackers possibly just yeast.

Overall this is a fun novelty pastry stout that is utterly huge and carries some traditional imperial stout notes. It feels like a cross between a milk stout and imperial stout woth some barrel aged character but the chunks were a bit off putting when you aren't expecting it.

UPDATE: I believe this beer is in fact barrel aged I can no longer find it on their website I believe this is limited release but based on their other similar beers this is aged on the adjunct ingredients although I'm still unsure about the can conditioning aspect of it.
