Ridiculously deep and dark brown coloured body with a very thin, single centimetre tall tan and relatively large-bubbled head that fades very quickly and leaves only a thin layer of light brown on top, but pretty noticeable. Aroma of canella, icing sugar, alcohol, molasses, pitted fruits, raisins and more canella - very strong in a good way and super rich. Medium-bodied to almost Full-bodied; Rich malty and pungent licorice, anise and coffee notes show at first, but then settle down to a super pungent canella and vanilla note with a lot of sweetness throughout and a lot of earthiness while being almost cloying, quite malty, but surprisingly, pretty easy-drinking. Aftertaste is complex, deep and pungent without being too strong, but showing a ton of bitterness, while there is a lot more sweetness and richness coming through from the vanilla and pitted fruits. Overall, a deep and robust beer with a ton of sugars and sweetness, not quite at the cloying level, but pretty close, with a lot of caramel (of course) and vanilla, while the deeper malts hit nicely too. Good to sample and enjoy especially on tap at hopefully a peak time, while here in town. I sampled this eight ounce pour on draught at Toronado in San Francisco, California on 10-March-2022 for US$8,00 sampled while here in the city one more time.
