Reviewed from notes.
Can to English pint glass.
Appearance: dark brown close to black in the glass with a two finger eggshell white foamy head which dissipated nicely and left a little bit of lace
Aroma: sweet milk chocolate, sweet wood, sly touch of vanilla, sweet nuts and a little bit of sweet earthiness
Flavor: combines the prior noted aromas to a fine malty sweet to subtle woody/earthy sweetness; finishes pretty dry with the woody tones and a little bit of cocoa-ish like powdery tones
Texture: medium bodied, leaning towards being slightly sessionable; light smoothness but once again that dryness running along the tongue gets pretty invasive
Overall: this has some great aromas and great flavors but if it wasn't as dry as it was, this could've been way better.
