Can shared at Lucky Bamboo share. Thanks Wayne! Pours a deep brown to black with a small ring of brown foam around the rim of the glass. Big vanilla and marshmallow fudge brownie aromas on the nose. As it warms it does get a bit sweet on the palate, but good fudgesicle and vanilla flavors throughout. Espresso and cacao towards the finish with the abv being hidden fairly well.

16oz can. Poured a smooth, black color with a medium sized brown head. Very similar to what I remember the old version was. Aroma was roasted notes, lots of boozy vanilla. Moderate booze, only slightly overpowering. Light sweetness, malt, vanilla, brown sugar.
