12oz (thx, Cory S.!) @ Ryan's after kids' time. Appearance: nice dark brown with a quickly dissipating beige head. Aroma: vanilla, coffee, chocolate, American oak. Taste: along the same lines, almost on the edge with vanilla amount, nice integration with coffee. It's quite thin, though, for whatever reason. Especially as for 15.5% of the beer. Tastes more like 8%. Overall: good enough.

Poured from 355mL can (pkg 15/Nov/2021). Very dark brown with very quickly dissipating beige head. Quite vanilla forward (verging on vanilla bomb on the taste), mild bourbon, feint coffee (mostly seems to have fallen off or just covered by the vanilla). Booziness (compared to the non-Super/non-adjunct Never Say Never) seems to have subdued a bit. Decent, but still a bit rough around the edges. Same overall score as regular Never Say Never 2021.
