Can. Really black with a cm of brown head that fades to a fat coat and then is at the rim. Brooding boozy mocha aroma with vanilla, dark syrupy sugars. No sign of pretzels in the aroma but they nip in the end in taste - there's a crackery and salty bit to the end along with some hard roast and light bitterness that for a little while (90ml?) nicely offsets the sweet vanilla, caramel and chocolate that comes before. There's a bit of a Crunchie-like honeycomb feel to the caramel too. Cloying before I've drunk half.

Can for Carwyn Collaborational. Black. Oily. Smells like sugar, vanilla and love. Tastes like someone swirled a salty pretzel in a chocolate stout. God, that works like a Dusty Martin float pass...
