Limited release. Opaque black with a tall, fine, tan head. Sweet aroma of chocolate, caramel, dark fruit, and a touch of coffee with lots of milk in it. Slightly woody and smokey. Smokey flavor, with coffee, chocolate, roasted barley, wood, milk. Not as sweet as the nose, very well balanced. Very smooth, great mix of smoke, sweet, creamy, bitter. Very easy to drink. Finish is smoky, with slightly bitter taste of roasted barley. Well done. Maybe a tad too sweet overall.

Pitch black color, off white head. Cold coffee, dark fruit exude from the nose. Mouth is smooth, but perhaps too similar to cold coffee for some people’s liking, a touch of plums. Lingering coffee finish. More like a coffee stout than an export stout, but still very enjoyable.
