8 oz draft. Aroma is bold coffee with cream hints. Flavor follows. The body is much thinner then I would guess for the style. Good. Not amazing.

Taste comprises roast malts, chocolate dipped raisins, charr, fruit cake, light coffee, brown sugar coated. Full bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a spike of alcohol. Decent impy ... would have liked a bit more coffee presence.

Can. Opaque dark brown beer, good fluffy tan head. Palate is airy and has a reasonable fine carbonation. Fluffy dark malts, slightly thin and slightly more tangy. A little dark malt cream, but again, quite thin. Decent coffee delivery, some espresso earthyness and a little fruity coffee turning slightly bitter. Smooth finish. A tidy affair but not the wow fest I was expecting from these heavyweight breweries.
