0.473 l can from 'Beer Republic', 2023 vintage, canned in September 2023. Pitch black with a medium large, frothy, almost stable, brown head. Sweetish-malty, quite roasty, gently fruity aroma of dark chocolate, coffee, whisky, vanilla and dark fruits. Fairly sweet, malty, quite roasty-bitter, gently fruity taste of dark chocolate, hard roasted coffee, roasted hazelnut, whisky, vanilla, some dark fruits and a touch of licorice, followed by a long, fairly roasty-bitter, slightly boozy finish. Full body, smooth and slightly creamy mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Massive beer, very intense, great barrel-aging, just a bit sharp.

Draft at the DEN airport restaurant. Pours black, with a small, beige head. The nose is bright mocha, cardamom, butterscotch, rye toast, and cocoa powder. Sweet and malty, with a faint, earthy bitterness. Medium to heavy body, dusty, and syrupy. Fun and interesting.

Can from The Davis Beer Shoppe. Pours dark brn/blk with a large creamy dark tan head. Aroma of whiskey and chocolate. Arguably full bodied. Not dry, but acceptably sweet from dark malt. Bitterness or the equivalent is supplied in part by heat. Flavor is whiskey, chocolate, dark malt, vanilla and wood notes. Excellent flavor.

12oz @ Ryan's (thx for the beer!).
Aroma: roasted malt, caramel, some sweetness.
Taste: taste is along the same lines, full-bodied. Finishes with quite high hoppy bitterness.
Overall: ok, too much bitterness for me that is not balanced by other flavors.

Poured from 355mL can (pkg 10/10/2024). Chestnut brown with small beige head. Toasted English malt with some mild caramel and a hopped finish. Comes together nicely.

330ml can. Pours black with a brown head & a viscous look. Aroma is dark malts & chocolate. Beer is slightly thick, bitter with the dark malts & chocolate from the aroma along with bitterness from lots of hops and maybe a very dark malt roast. A stout for those who like it full bodied & bitter. A bit much for me.
