8oz glass is an opaque black, a ring of beige head, no legs.  Nose has malt and cola and some toast.  Cocoa powder is definitely there.  Flavor really brings it and there is a lot happening.  Huge malt and toast, really big smoke/char thing, is that the cocoa?  Can't be.  Cola and rootbeer and even some coffee or a coffee soda.  Full bodied, the smoke lingers some and the carb is just a tick higher than it should be.  Long finish too.  Huh.  7 3 9 3 14.  Sort of a weird one but good still.
