12 ounce can with a label on it saying 12.7 ounce - bottle shortage due to Coronavirus? - quite possible - well, if we’re going to endure a pandemic, we might as well do it tipsy on imperial stout - boiled for 8 hours, this thing is super roasty and smoky - surprisingly dry but rich - a lot of smoke and espresso - some dried cherry and berry character - creamy texture - some underlying vanilla sweetness before a deeply bittersweet finish of coffee and baker’s chocolate - it’s pretty darn good.
