355ml can that pours a real dark brown colour with little ruby-copper highlights. The head is nice and creamy, warm-beige, long lasting leaving some foamy patches of lacing. Chocolate aromas over the roasted barley base, mild coffee, vanilla, bananas and a touch of alcohol. A smooth, not too thick, slick mouthfeel with a lightly drying finish. The taste is on the bitter side with some grassiness, but does not last too long. A tad bananas, roasted malts and maybe 95% cacao chocolate. Yep, just a bitter-hoppier Imperial Stout here.
