Super rich dark brown coloured body with a thinnish tan head that fades quickly and leaves a small lace on the sides. Aroma of molasses, vanilla, cream, alcohol, light bourbon and some grain, but the sweetness of the caramelised sugars is the strongest here, in a good way. Full-bodied; Very rich vanilla, creamy, oaty and especially lactosey way with a ton of body and richness form the malts with perhaps even more sweetness with a lot of pungency throughout along with a rich alcohol bite that seemingly sticks around for a very long time with a good deal of sweet punch at the end. Aftertaste shows some vanilla and grain, but the cream, oats and especially the sweet molasses and caramelised sugars much stronger than anything else. Overall, a very nice and super pungent beer that is rich, decadent and very good for the style, as long as you can handle it. Great to have, especially on draught, locally and oddly enough, during the day! I sampled this sixteen ounce, PINT poured on draught at the Grand Trunk Pub in downtown Detroit on 19-April-2023 for US$7,50.
