Can. Very dark brown with an inch of tan head. 3+ Aroma of deep roast, cream, coffee, chocolate brioche, some citrus flowers. Poured gloopily but after the aroma doesn't signal sweet, perhaps not that surprising it's only medium bodied. The palate is solid rather than thumping (a good thing for me) with firm roast, medium roasted coffee, a slight earthiness and cocoa rather than chocolate. Again, there's a light citrusy hop touch that's not very assertive but lightens things. A good one to drink fresh IMHO.
