A 16 fl. oz. can with no clear canned on or best before date. Poured into a MBCC 2018 stemmed tasting glass.
Appearance: Black in colour with a half finger mocha head that dissipated fairly quickly while leaving some nice lacing.
Aroma: Nutty, almond, coconut, chocolate, with a touch of vanilla and honey.
Taste: Lightly sweet, honey, almond, milk chocolate with hints of coconut and vanilla.
Mouthfeel: Medium to full bodied with low carbonation.
Overall: Good aroma and tasting Imperial Stout. The almonds were especially a nice touch.

Pours viscous and exceedingly dark.
Coconut nose blends smoothly into cacao and espresso notes that sustain long past the sip. Boozy and bitter with mild carbonation and almost no head. Overall quite enjoyable.

Pours a nice, nutty black, with a slightly fizzy dark tan head. OK retention, fading to a nice thin ring around the glass.
Roasty and slightly sweet nose, featuring coffee, coconut, molasses, and roasted barley. A touch weak, but quite inviting.
Sweet and thick dessert stout on the palate. Lovely waves of coconut wash over the palate, dominating against a backdrop of vanilla, chocolate, coffee, and honey. Thick, chewy, and smooth; no hint that the ABV is anywhere close to 12.5%.
A dessert stout for sure, but a delicious one.
