12 ounce can from Ridgeview Liquor, 3/14/25. Black, large brown head, good retention. Can't get the whole beer in the ample glass. Aroma of roast, chocolate, vanilla. Taste is roast, chocolate, raisin, vanilla, roast. Well balanced, On the danger of being too sweer but OK. Nice beer,

Irish cream, chocolate malt, whiskey, and hay aroma. Dark chestnut brown with large tan head. Very sweet Irish cream, chocolate malt, and mildly bitter hay and alcohol flavor. Okay body.

Bottle shared by dad. Dark brown color with a decent sized off white head that slowly recedes. Huge vanilla nose and flavor against a creamed coffee maltiness. First couple of sips are interesting then the sweetness overwhelms.

Pours dark brown with a small light tan head. It smells of coffee, chocolate, and vanilla. It’s pretty sweet. Creamy mouthfeel. Good.

Draught @ Sixpoint City Point location (4/12/23). Clear dark brown with copper highlights against the light, foamy dark beige head, citrus-mocha aroma, medium carbonation, initially sweet medium bitter roasted malt taste with orange flavor, smooth thin body, long finish. The orange flavor does not really fit the brew.

Tap at victory taproom Philadelphia. A clear mahogany brown coloured pour with sticky magnolia head. Aroma is semi creamy, Baileys, Irish cream, nutty. Warming whiskey. Flavour is composed of semi sweet, nutt, brown sugars, creamy, light bitter Irish cream,. Palate is semi sweet, light tangy, moderate carbonation. Pulls it off. Good fun.

Big black pour from a bottle. Nice creamy tan head that eventually fades. Smell is that of sweet malt. Taste is a little sweet up front. Almost becomes cloying in the middle but never quite gets there. Yes, can feel the vanilla in this one. Gets more difficult and slightly annoying near the finish. Some sharp almost phenolic pointed astringent bitterness on the finish. Leaves a lasting bitter oily feeling in the mouth. Unique.
