This beer was inspired by our love of the iced vanilla latte; one of our favorite caffeinated beverages. This beer features a complex grist of dark and roasted malts, milk sugar, espresso sourced from Brazil, Costa Rica, and Guatemala, and vanilla beans sourced from Papua New Guinea. Our ambition was to walk the line, balancing sweetness, and mouthfeel, while allowing the adjuncts to add to the experience rather than overpower it.

Shared by Sam at Sam's place, during the tasting he organized. Thanks... George!

Dark brown. Oily head.
Earthy coffee, minerally, touch of soot.
Super dense, choco, rich soot, really rich delivery. Medium low carb but with enough acid & consistency.

Slow build but it really delivers.

355ml can. Jet black colour with average to huge, frothy to creamy, slowly diminishing, minimally lacing, dark brown head. Sweet-ish, roasty and chocolately, dark malty and slightly spicy aroma, notes of dark chocolate, coffee, vanilla, hints of chocolate cookies, lactose. Taste is sweet-ish and roasty, chocolately, dark malty and slightly spicy, notes of coffee, dark chocolate, vanilla, hints of chocolate cookies, lactose, a touch of maple syrup, well integrated, camouflaged, bitter alcoholic counterpart, minimally alcoholic interludes.
Dissolved sugar enriched, watery texture, smooth and soft, slightly cloying, simultaneously minimally repellent palate, medium to fine, scattered, prickly carbonation.
Sweet, harmonious (i.e. matching flavours) composition, but partially a tad excessive, not really balanced - nice pastry beer.

3rd in the new site, a bit tipsy, last one.
Smell- malty, caramel, brownie, chocolate.
Foam-medium thick, malt, caramel, faint roasy, faint caramel, faint alcohol. Head is medium-sized, medium dark brown in color.
Appearance- somewhat simple can with an owl, guess I like. Black in color, with no visible carbonation.
From - snifter
Taste - malty, caramel, weak chocolate, alcohol. Strong, sweet and boozy. Overall I like, but feels a bit too alcoholic.

12 oz. can, from the Lincoln Fill Station. Pours black, with a thin, tan ring. The aroma is mild coffee, vanilla, walnut, light soy, and dark chocolate. Sweet and sugary, with a light, musty bitterness. Pretty acrid finish. Medium to heavy body, with a smooth, slick feel. Good aromas, but a little rough.

Can from Livonia Liquor. Pours a thick, viscous pitch black with a finger of brown head that lingers. Dark chocolate, vanilla and roasted coffee on the nose. Palate is similar with coffee, vanilla and more dark chocolate really standing out. Full-bodied and well-rounded mouthfeel. Lingering chocolate, coffee and vanilla on the finish.

Can (24066, so 3/6/24) pour from Manchester Wine and Liquors. Inky black pour with nice viscosity, no head, no lacing. Aroma is strong bittersweet coffee, dark roasted malts, vanilla, lactose, all in nice balance. Taste follows aroma. Smooth, thick texture, full bodied with soft carbonation, no sign of alcohol and finish as taste.
