Can thanks to Stuu. Pours black with a thin tan head. Aromas of coffee, chocolate and leather. Taste brings the sourdough. Sweet finish.

Black tar color pour. Thin foam around the glass. Scattered lace. Dark chocolate, vanilla, and coffee with a root beer palate. Pretty intense.

Pint can for 5.99 - thank you, Jester King for not selling this for 12 bucks a can like every other brewery in the universe - mostly black pour - thick, but fizzy and short-lived tan head - nose is simultaneously cloyingly sweet but also with moderate umami - some coffee and cream - medium-full body, though the finish is lightly thin - fairly sweet, especially in the finish - chocolate, coffee, light smoke, light umami - finish brings some bitterness and light tannic character - it has it’s weaknesses but is overall solid, especially at the price point.
