0.355l can. Black body with a lasting brown head. Aroma and tate of coffee, chocolate, some vanilla and prunes. Some floral hoppyness shows up at the end of the sip, but really not that bitter. Smooth, silky texture. Nice balanced beer.

355ml can [at 7.8% abv, with artisan coffee from Corvus Coffee Roasters]. Jet black colour with average to huge, firm, frothy to creamy, moderately lasting and lacing, beige head. Roasty, slightly chocolately, dark malty aroma, notes of mocha, dark chocolate, dark cocoa, whiffs of plum and brown sugar. Taste is bitter, roasty dark malty and minimally sugary, sweet-ish, hints of mocha, brown sugar, a touch of burnt caramel, a minimally warming, alcoholic touch with hints of plum wine as well. Dissolved sugar enriched, watery texture, smooth and soft palate, medium, dense, soft, mildly prickly carbonation. Compact, focussed aroma with nice coffee flavours, rather heterogeneous and slightly disharmonious taste, a tad too bitter and superfluously sugary - not fully convinving.
