Can. Very black with a fat coat of tan head. Brooding fudge and mocha aroma with singed caramel. Oily, low carbonation. Fairly sweet with savoury roast, bitterness and a little alcohol keeping things in check. Nice mocha and singed caramel flavours balanced well at the finish. Lacks a bit of a bottom end for something quite so strong. Simpler but probably the best of the series I've tried.

From a 355ml can on 19/8/2021. Pours a deep brown with a small head. Smells of caramel and chocolate with some roastiness. There's dark and milk chocolate, a bit of coffee and caramel up front with a quite firm roasty bitterness, with hints of licorice and molasses in the background. The little bit boozy in the finish. The mouthfeel is syrupy, the carbonation moderate. A decent big impy but doesn't provide any thrills.
