3 month old pint can A: Poured a tall lasting tan head atop a ruby tinted deep brown body. S: Light notes of coffee, dark toast and herbal or vegetal hops. T: Sweet toasty bread and roasty grain notes converge with earthy and herbal hops. Faint sweet-tart overripe fruit joins at the end. M: Light and smooth with low but prickly carbonation and slick finish. O: Nicely balanced if slightly sweet leaning. Tasty overall. Worth a buy.

Can from Tavour. Pours very dark brown with a foamy tan head. Aroma of earthy chocolate and hints of dark fruit. Med body. Flavor is earthy chocolatey malt with something suggesting dark plums - tho it's not plums. Maybe a suggestion of earthy coffee. This is really good beer, but it's so tasty my parsing ability is overwhelmed. Nice indeed.
