Pint can pours with a dark brown colored body that supports a tan head of foam. The aroma offers up roasty malts, a dash of dark roasted coffee, some nuttiness and then some chocolate malts. The taste delivers about the same with a pretty solid level of dark roasted malts with near burnt French roast coffee notes as well as thin nuttiness and a sense of chocolate malts. This is firmly roasty and I'm ok with that. A few more sips and murmurs of jammy fruity esters are there off in the background.
