Canned March 10th 2020, bought from and shipped by Hi Wire Brewing.
It pours pitch black with a nice head of tan foam, excellent lacing.
The smell is of coconut, vanilla, chocolate and some alcohol.
Coconut and vanilla dominate with chocolate, lactose and alcohol follow up. It leans more to the sweet side than the bitter but it's fairly close. Picking up more lactose with every sip.
Smooth mouthfeel. 3 cans left and it will be a while until I have another. It doesn't have the greatest drinkability.
