Dark brown, opaque, with a rapidly dissipating dark brown head. The aroma reveals chocolate malts, molasses, a hint of espresso, and a light fruitiness. The taste is sweet, chocolatey, roasty, and fruity acidity. Praline alcohol follows, with a hint of vanilla on the finish and a decent bitterness. It's thick, but velvety with a low carbonation. A proper beer for celebrating a birthday.

440ml can as part of a 6th birthday delivery from the brewery. (Their 6th birthday, not mine.) It pours very dark brown, pretty much opaque, with very little head. Chocolate malts, treacle, a little bit of espresso and maybe even some rubber in the aroma. Taste is sweet, chewy chocolate, caramel, salt liquorice.very boozy on the latter half of the sip within tense vanilla on the finish and some decent bitterness. It's soupy thick with very little carbonation. Impressive impy and setting the bar high for 2026.
