16oz can. Poured a pitch black color with a large, quickly dissipating brown head. Aroma was big chocolate, some light on bitterness. Probably has to do with the fact that the alcohol content so high. Not as bold as I had expected it would be, but thankfully it's not overly sweet, as I've found this is the case with a lot of high alcohol ones. The abv snuck up on me an hour or two later.

Can in a trade with Stacey that she purchased at Sand City. Honestly, I thought this is going to be too sweet. However, the chocolate and fudge is balanced by so e bitter roast. Mouth feel and texture is thick and dense. Lactose sugar isn’t found and the ABV is hidden which is quite impressive. Oh, and this can sneak up on you after you finish the can.
