16 oz can. Aroma is chocolate, banana, gun metal, nutty. Pours very dark brown to black with a thin tan head that reduces to a ring quickly. Taste is bittersweet with chocolaty flavor; banana is fairly subdued. A little underwhelming, but not bad.

Dink pour during the trip to Festival of Dark Arts 2026 with Josh.
Aroma: very earthy, bananas, kinda artificial.
Taste: along the same lines, roasty, on the thinner side.
Overall: not impressed.
