Very smooth. Alcohol is super well hidden. Canned 11-02-21 and can says 10.5% alcohol.
Purchased a variety 4 pack. Looking forward to the other 3.

16 FL. OZ can
Served in a snifter

This beer pours black and is topped with a couple inches of tan head that leaves some nice lacing.

The smell is vanilla, chocolate, roasted malt, and coffee.

The taste starts out the a one, two punch of vanilla and chocolate. I get a little roasted malt flavor with hints of coffee.

Medium bodied with a velvety smooth mouthfeel

Not bad. This was probably my favorite from the mixed 4 pack.

From the 16oz can in a snifter. This nice milk stout pours a
dark blackish brown with a nice head of khaki foam that
settles to a thin ring, thin swirling pool, and shows some
nice light lacing. Nose of dark bakers cocoa, char, deep
roasted malts, vanilla, cream, and hints of coffee. Flavors
follow with a fine presentation of dark bakers chocolate,
cream, brulee, dark coffee hints, subtle vanilla notes,
and deep roast with char. Mouth feel is medium full,
smooth, rich, coating, light carbonation, but a hair on the
watery side with a lightly dry and bitter malt finish.

Overall, a solid brew.

Cheers

Of Note, review has been updated. The new version is at 10.5 and
shows much more balance.

16 ounce can, date of 03/02/2021 printed on the bottom. Since this is a pretty new release I'm guessing the canning date was February 3rd, 2021. Served in a snifter, the beer pours dark brown/black with about a half inch tan head that stuck around a little while. Good amount of lacing, too. The brew smells like burnt/charred malt, cream, and a bit of vanilla. Taste is sweeter than the aroma led me to believe at first, with vanilla, cream, roasted malt and a bit of a burnt/charred flavor. Vanilla and cream were more noticeable in the taste, and the burnt/charred character stood out in the aroma. Mouthfeel/body is medium, it's a bit slick with a moderate amount of carbonation. I liked this one, glad I tried it! $13.99 as part of their mixed 4-pack along with the cacao, strawberry and Neapolitan versions.
