Canned 7/2/25, drunk 8/13/25.
Clear, hazelnut-cola. Large, lightly-creamy, dark beige head, good retention.
Clean and aromatic with a healthy amount of chocolate character from the dark malts and a touch of toffee, but no big toast/roast. Lots of base malt. Some unfermented honey magnifies this, while adding light floral notes, as well.
Lots of base malt with just a touch of roast/toast. Light caramel, light unfermented honey, but nothing is too sweet. Lot of flavor and body for its size. Incredibly drinkable and balanced. The hits from Bizarre keep comin'....

16 ounce can from Tavour. Nearly opaque dark brown color. Frothy tan head settles to a small cap. Mild roasty malt aroma. Hints of cocoa and honey. Soft, pliable mouthfeel. Light roasted malt, cocoa and sweet, honeyish notes. Some woody, spicy citrus notes on backend. Quite enjoyable.

Can from Tavour. Pours very dark brown with a foamy tan head. Aroma of dark malts and chocolate with things I can't quite place. Med body. Flavor is dark malt and chocolate with honey. Honey flavor? Can't place it - just honey. Oat lurks. Honey on my lips.

16oz can from Tavour. Dark brown pour, bubbly head fades quickly. Aroma is roasty malts, coffee-ish notes. Taste is mild roastiness and bitterness with a touch of honey sweetness. Oats provide for a smooth, slick feel.
