On tap at Proletariat, pours jet black with a tiny head. Aroma has rich coffee, dark cocoa, and gentle bourbon barrels in back. Flavour is rich, with lots of bourbon barrels, intense coffee, dark chocolate, and a slightly boozy finish. Really nice incorporation of the coffee and chocolate. Excellent.
