Can. Pitch black body with a huge, creamy beige head. Aroma has dark malt, chocolate and coffee. Flavor is sweet with dark, roasted malt, some dry fruit, coffee and chocolate. Medium bitterness. Fine body and long aftertaste. Surprisingly much coffee in flavor considering this is not the coffee version, had to check the can one more time. Decent dry stout.

Poured from a can at Humle & Bier Craft Beer Festival 2018. Coal black body, patchy surface, clingy lacing down the glass. Mid-sweet chocolate and dark doughy aromas. Blended dark malty flavours with moments of dough, coffee and chocolate. Mid-sweet malty ending. slightly roasted. Fine depth. Nice. (Tromsø 07.04.2018).
