Can via Beer Republic. Surprisingly smooth and easy drinking. Packed with chocolatey maltiness, a bit of coffeeish deep roast too. Well attenuated, rather bitter than sweet, while retaining full body with med-light carbonation. ABV hidden really well, drinks dangerously easily. Really well made, tasty. Great beer.

12 fl. oz. can from the Beer Republic advent calendar. Jet black in the glass, nearly two finger thick dark beige frothy head. Looks very good. Roasted malt, coffee, berryfruity aroma. Taste is smooth roasted malty, smooth coffee and choco, fruity but also pleasant alcoholic. Slick at the palate. Great stuff.

355 ml can from Beer Republic advent calendar poured into a Snifter. Pitch black with a thin, lightly tanned head. Sweet, roasted aroma with coffee, chocolate, toasted bread, and herbal, hoppy notes. The taste is bitter. Full body. Dry and roasted bitter finish with lingering dark malts. Lovely, hoppy stout.

Can drunk after putting a toddler to bed, who absolutely wanted Mommy to do so and NOT Daddy. Darkest color with a tall brown head. Cacao and coffee nose of deeply roasted stuff. Great big dry flavor, a little saltiness. Dark roast with a hint of sweetness, pretty present but smooth citrus bitterness that lasts, just an excellent imperial.
