12 oz can. The aroma is bolder roasted coffee beans. Flavor is reminiscent of cold brew coffee with a touch of vanilla and peanut butter. The body and texture are nice for a porter. Real tasty!

Can. A black one, unclear, with a dense finger-thick dark beige head. Some lacing. The aroma has lots of butter coffee, really lots, with vanilla, sweetness, dark sugar, oats and roasted malts. Breakfast-ish. It's full-bodied, sweet and smooth on the palate, with a very soft carbonation. Coffee, chocolate notes, brown sugar, roasted malts, oats and a buttery touch in the flavor. Caramel finish with buttery coffee, brown sugar and oats. A delicious one indeed, well worth a revisit, not sure I'd be able to down a can on my own though. 221007
