Can from One Stop Market. Inky, opaque black, thin cap of head quickly fading to a ring, nice sparkle, light viscosity, trace lacing. Aroma is strong roasted malt over milder bitter chocolate and coffee with spice (cinnamon?). Taste is strong roasted malt, molasses, late hints of bitter chocolate and coffee (mostly in finish). Smooth, thick texture, medium bodied, soft carbonation and finish as taste. Good complexity and excellent strength of both aroma and taste. Very nice.
