On tap at Barrel & Stave, pours jet black with a small brown head. Aroma brings out plenty of almond and vanilla upfront, followed by a bit of coffee and gentle roast. Flavour has rich almond and dark sugars, with notes of chocolate, coffee and vanilla. A bit clumsy and haphazardly put together. It's tasty enough, but doesn't have the complexity. Decent.
