Can from the brewery. Black pour, large dark brown head. Roasty, burnt coffee, soft vanilla, some soy, hints of cocoa. Mouth feel is a touch thin, medium carb. Decent impy, but a touch light.

Tasting at Brian's, can
The colour is near black. Some chocolate, some dark bread, sweetish, light vanilla, but the malt flavour is not very rich, the result is fairly shallow.

473mL can, pours black with a small tan head. Aroma reveals medium roasted malt, a little vanilla, and dry coffee beans. Flavour is along the same lines, with high roast, dry coffee and a hint of vanilla. Nice addition of coffee and vanilla, with a big roasty base. Good stuff.
