16 oz can from Total Wine - Las Vegas. Pours a pitch black color and root beer colored highlights and a small beige head with fair retention. Almost no lacing. Dark malt and light coffee aroma. The flavor is very dark roasted, almost charred, with a short, slightly metallic finish. Simple profile and easy drinking except for the finish. Almost really good.
