This review was imported from my BeerAdvocate ratings.
12 oz. can
5.0% ABV
Canned on: 10/22/24
$13.49 6-pk @ Publix
AROMA: Slightly sweet with mild scents of brown sugar and malt. As the beer warms I start to get moderate scents of coffee and dark chocolate.
APPEARANCE: Pours an opaque black with a 2-finger, dark tan head that dissipates at a moderate pace, with moderate lacing.
TASTE: Slightly bitter with strong flavors of unsweetened dark chocolate and bold espresso. From the aroma, I was expecting something a little sweet, but the flavor is mostly a mild bitterness. The finish is slightly dry with a hint of milk flavor.
MOUTHFEEL: Medium-bodied but leaning towards full-bodied. Smooth and slightly creamy with above-average carbonation.
OVERALL: Honestly, this beer reminds me of a Guinness with the only differences being that the Guinness has a slightly smoother texture and has a touch of sweetness. Which is probably why I find myself really liking this beer.
