From Good Times Oakland, 500ml bottle, no dating.

Black pour, huge tan head of foam at first, shrinks to a fine broken layer, some lacing.

Smell is dark chocolate, toffee, light coffee, roasted malt is pretty large. Some light licorice.

The taste matches the smell with the addition of big alcohol presence. Little bit of a burn going on. Molasses also makes itself known.

High end of medium bodied, this is quite nice.

Bottle. Blackish beer with a low tan head. Chocolate and caramel aroma. Chocolate and vanilla flavor with caramel and light molasses. Medium-plus bodied. Chocolate and caramel linger with molasses and light black licorice.
