473mL can, pours a dirty dark brown with a small beige head. Aroma has artificial chocolate, some faint chocolate cake, subtle cocoa powder, some earthiness, but no real malt base. Flavour is thin, with artificial chocolate, vegetal notes, subtle cocoa powder, and some earthiness. Vegetal, very light, artificial; doesn’t have any malt base, drinking more like a brown ale. Very poor—the fuck were they thinking here?

This poured medium brown with probably the biggest protein chunk I've ever seen in a beer. The aroma tells me this is going to be sweet, thin and bland, despite a blizzard of adjuncts. Ok body, but not much going on. Yeah, the adjuncts are all over the place, does not come together. There is no joy here.

Poured from 473mL can (stamped 03/12/2025). Very dark brown with minimal beige head; big gelatinous gloop in the can. Brown ale with vanilla and chocolate, no espresso, cheap birthday cake adjunct brown ale.

473mL can. Pours very dark brown with a beige head. Cocoa powder and milk cream chocolate on the nose. Flavour has cocoa powder, cheap creamy icing. No malts, some bitterness. What is the point of this?
