Can pour from Total Wine & More, Brentwood. It's an opaque black with tons of sparkle at the edges of the glass, finger-width light brown tight foam head with excellent retention and nice rings of lacing. Aroma is moderately strong bittersweet coffee, milder cocoa and nut. Taste mirrors aroma with addition of lactose. Mouthfeel is light-to-medium bodied with smooth, creamy texture, soft carbonation, alcohol warmth and finish as taste with mild lingering bitterness. Overall, aroma and taste could be a little stronger but are well balanced and certainly avoids being overly sweet. A little thin especially given the lactose. Drinks nice.

12oz can. Sticky lacing. Alcohol essence tickles the nostrils. I really like the base beer. This is a very alcohol version of that. Mensa from it's a good beer with a lot of barrel alcohol.

16 oz can purchased as a single at Tipsy’s Wine and Spirits in Mission, Kansas. The pour is a black brown with some ruby and a dark khaki 1/2 inch head. The aroma is coffee and cream, soft lactose sweetness. The taste is the milky cream and roast coffee with milk sweetness toward the back. The palate is medium to heavy bodied with soft carbonation and the milky sweet soft roast finish. Nice one.

16 oz can purchased as a single at Tipsy’s Wine and Spirits in Mission, Kansas. The pour is a slight haze orange golden with a fizzy one inch white head that falls with a bit of lace. The aroma is sweet caramel, floral, and a hint of the spice of the rye. The taste is sweet caramel malt, the floral honey behind that, and some of the grainy rye towards the back. The palate is medium bodied, active carbonation and a honey rye somewhat lingering sweet finish.
