Dark brown, thin head. The aroma certainly showcases that amburana and vanilla both. The body is medium. There's a light chocolate, before the amburana comes through more strongly. That barrel hits hard on the finish in particular, with light vanilla. Not bad.

16 oz. can, pours black with a small brown head. Aroma has gentle amburana wood upfront, followed by vanilla beans, and a touch of cocoa. Flavour has more subdued amburana wood, gentle vanilla, burnt dark sugars, and cocoa. I wish the amburana was more expressive. It's very good, but not what I hoped.

Poured from 473mL can. Black with small tan head. Lots of cinnamon from the amburana, feint vanilla, decent.

473mL can. Pours black with small beige head. Great amburana notes and vanilla on the nose. Flavour has light chocolate and malts, vanilla, and a very nice amburana character on the finish. The amburana is floating on top, rather than being well-integrated. That aside, this is still a very enjoyable beer.

Can. Pours a pitch black hue with a small brown head. A big sweet nose, roast, coffee and licorice. Rich flavors, some bitter dark chocolate, licorice, big vanilla. Not getting a ton of wood, maybe some astringency. Very rich, a thick palate.
