16 oz. can in a trade with tfontana, much thanks! 2019 Vintage, Batch #14. Thin lasting tan head on top a pitch black liquid. Aroma has molasses, char, roast. Flavor has the char, molasses like in the center. Very subtle bitterness in a thick full body. Dry roasted texture. Quality base imperial stout.

Can pour into tulip glass from the brewery. Appearance is an oily black pour, opaque in the glass with light sparkle at the edge of the glass, finger-plus width foamy light-brown head with reddish hue and decent retention with mild soapy lacing. Aroma is rich roasted malts, chocolate, hint of dark fruit. Taste is bittersweet roasted malts bordering on ash, toffee, dark fruit (stronger than in aroma) and mild alcohol. Palate is medium bodied with smooth, thick texture, average carbonation and finish as taste. Overall, awesome appearance, flavor expands the aroma and a nice mouthfeel, though could be a tad more full-bodied. A winner!
