12oz (thx, Terry M.!) @ 🏡
Aroma: American oak, black chcocolate, bold.
Taste: a lot of American oak, oily, black chocolate, toasted barrel, low to moderately sweet.
Overall: another nice Black Magic. It reminds me Bas Canada stouts quite a lot, though, and their stouts are like twice cheaper and made in Canada.

Сухо на аромат, весьма кофейный, цвет черный но не угольный. Вкус немного разочеровал, очень сухо, алкогольно, кофейно, но не глубоко, и алкашка слишком сильно выпирает.
