Excellence in a can. Amazing balanced and tasty beer.
Complete black stuff and a fine beige top.
Lovely aroma. The aroma and flavor match each other also.
Balanced sweetness and a smooth carbonation level.
Chocolate, dark malt, nutty and some vanilla

Can Coward 2022 aroma of vanilla, peanut butter, sweet hard roasted malts, chocolate. flavor is very sweet, cake frosting, chocolate milk, roasted malts, vanilla, faint boozy note as if the beer had been aged on soaked wood chips or in a barrel. imho too much flavor from other things than roasted malts, but then that is the idea with pastry stout sometimes. too much cake frosting. the beer appears well composed , complex and fairly balanced in its own frosty chocolate cakey way.

Presumable an Alias to Yellow Belly, though I haven't been confirmed that officially. Pours black, small tanned head. Scent is intense, roasty, chocolate, peanut (crunchy). taste is intense, thick, sweet, lactose-forward it seems , strong peanut flavor (obviously extract). Some chocolate-roast underneath, fairly enjoyable but obviously very arteficial and sweet - and thus rather simple by that.

(Thanks, Jeremy! Blackhaddock) Can. A- Nutty, cocoa. A- Black color, black liquid, minimal tan head. T- Nutty, peanut butter, chocolate. P- Full body, average texture, average carbonation, balanced finish. O- A nice peanut buttery creamy flavor with lots of semi sweet chocolate. Really don't get a ton of biscuity flavor. While it's a solid beer, it's not Yellow Belly.
