Poured out of a pint can, the chocolate milk colored beer actually oozed out of the can. Neither head nor lacing.

Aroma is chocolate, coffee and vanilla. Delightful for a dessert..

Taste follows nose but the flavors are amped up. Way up. It was like drinking a melted chocolate sundae. No hop flavor and no bitterness.

The flavor is mostly heavy chocolate like an old school chocolate milk syrup such as Bosco or Ubet. The coffee is there, but is secondary There’s no denying flavor is rich and delicious.perhaps too sweet for many and ambrosia to others.

Interestingly, the beer is also boozy (bourbon barrel flavor is good) yet is 5.5%. I suppose on swallow there might be a twinge of sour that is mostly masked by bourbon barrel flavor

Mouthfeel is great, viscous. soft and luscious. No carbonation.
