12 oz can purchased as part of a holiday mix 6 pack at Sandhills Brewing in Mission, Kanas. The pour is an opaque black brown and a small khaki head. The aroma is char roast, smoke, and some grass. The taste is cane sugar, toffee, the char roast, hint of the vanilla and campfire smoke in the finish. As it warms, the vanilla and cane sugar become more evident, and syrup sort of flavor. The palate is medium to heavier bodied, soft carbonation and the roast and smoke to the finish. Fun take on Raven, well executed.
