Can from Livonia Liquor. Pours a pitch black with a finger of brown head that builds. Espresso, molasses and dark malt dominate the nose. Palate is very similar with dark malt, molasses, hops and more coffee notes throughout. Fairly thick-bodied stout. Great flavor and depth. Just gets better as it warms.
