Can. Black with a brown head that's soon less than a coat. Lots of sweetened coffee in the aroma with caramel and some milk as well as roast. Smooth texture with medium low carbonation. The coffee is more subdued in the very sweet taste with heavy roasted malt coming through more clearly. Some bitterness at the finish would have been welcome. But it carries its weight pretty well and the coffee and roast are enough that it doesn't seem cloying.

From a 375 can on 21/6/2020 (shared with Butz). pours near black with a medium head. The nose features a decent dash of coffee and roastiness. Tastes of dark chocolate, licorice, coffee and a touch of soy, with a medium roasty bitterness. The mouthfeel is slick and the carbonation moderate. Doesn't drink quite up to the 10.5%. A decent enough impy if not particularly notable.
