On nitro tap at Cask and Vine Pours a solid dark brown bordering on black with a huge frothy tan head that persists forever. Aromas of dark and caramelized sugars with a fair bit of dark dried fruits clove phenols and a touch of ethanol. The flavor is a bit sweet with lots of darker sugars and a prune-y fruitiness. Light earth, yeasty esters, and a touch of alcohol round out the flavor well. Medium to thick body with a moderate level of carbonation and a creamy thick velvety smooth mouthfeel. Great frigging brew right here! Alcohol is well hidden and the beer is extremely flavorful. Great job Dave.
