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.
