Can with 51524220 code, from Airforcehops, drunk 5/21/24. Thanks, Chris! Dark, clear, with a medium-sized, tan head that fades slowly to cover. Big fruity, chocolatey, well-roasted coffee character on top of a bit of timid beer. Yeah, the coffee is excellent, if perhaps a bit heavy-handed, but the stout is a bit thin, grainy, lacking depth. Tastes like cold brew with a touch of malt to me.

Can (51524220 bottom of can) pour from trade with AirForceHops--thanks, Chris! Virtually opaque dark brown-magenta with nice sparkle, thin, persistent head with nice splotchy lacing. Aroma is strong coffee, bitter over sweet components. Taste is strong coffee, more bitter roast and baker's chocolate than sweet. Smooth, thick texture, average carbonation and pretty bitter roasted finish. Reminds me of chocolate covered espresso beans. Don't get a lot of base stout here but pretty good nonetheless.

16 oz can. Aroma is. Coffee on top of soft roasted malt. Flavor follows with a hint of vanilla. Some mild bitterness for balance. Decent body and texture. Overall, everything here checks out.
