2022 vintage can from Livonia Liquor. Pours a pitch black with a finger of brown head that lingers. Lots of cassia and cinnamon stick notes on the nose. Treacle, molasses, tobacco and faint vanilla. Great body, thick and viscous. Killer stout.

Can from Tørst: pours hazy light orange with white head. Aroma is citrus, mango, piña. Taste is not too sweet, light bitterness. Pretty light for a double.

Can (12/20/21) pour. It's an opaque, motor oil black with nice viscosity, light sparkle, finger-plus width light brown foamy head with decent retention and nice rings of lacing. Aroma is strong mix of everything advertised--pecan, chocolate, coconut, vanilla, and coffee all in nice balance. Faintest of alcohol burn to the nostrils with a huge sniff. Taste is strong coconut, chocolate, vanilla, milder coffee and hint of nuts. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with thick texture, soft carbonation, alcohol heat and mix of bitter and sweet coffee. Overall, this is a bit of a beast! Amazing aroma for balance and complexity. Taste is good but not as good as aroma. Alcohol presence is almost fully masked but detracts slightly. Looking forward to trying more of these guys!

I'm impatient sometimes pouring so here's an action shot. It's a coffee stout! But a great one! It helps that the cinnamon/cassia maple is upfront, actual coffee is mellow, nice sweet winter weather stout! Thanks Omar S.

16 oz can in a trade with tfontana. Thanks Tom. Aroma is coconut, vanilla, and coffee. The flavor is rich but not overly so. Mild coconut and vanilla with earthy coffee lasting long after the sip. Bitter coffee provides balance to the sweetness. All the adjuncts are in harmony. This is exceptional! Wow!

16 oz can from Half Time, 1/28/22. Canned 12/29/21. Pours a murky darker yellowish color with a large, foamy head that coats the glass in heavy lacework. Passionfruit, citrus, and pineapple. Somewhat dank. Lively carbonation, with a tingly finish on the tongue. Lots of flavor. Tasty stuff.
