Can, 0.44l. Deep brown, almost black pour, two finger creamy beige head. Good retention, lasting head. Nice lacing on the glass. Roasty nose, coffee, dark chocolate, cocoa powder. Quite nice. Medium body, soft carbonation. Smooth and creamy mouthfeel and texture, chewy, soft, really nice on the palate. Malty sweet taste with mild bitterness to balance it out. Aroma of caramel, toffee, cocoa. Dark chocolate, latte. Nutty, almonds. Lingering roasty notes. Quite easily drinkable for the ABV, would never guess it's almost 9%. Smooth. Short to medium lasting finish, bittersweet. Tasty one.
