330ml can. Pours black with a thin tan head. Aroma of chocolate, vanilla, nuts. Taste is very sweet, creamy vanilla, chocolate, slight nuttiness, faint roast malt bitterness in the background. Full bodied, smooth.
As described, not much else to it, but well executed nonetheless.

440ml can. Pours a very dark brown with a small beige head. Aroma of chocolate and roasted malts, an odd (not in a bad way, just unusual) herbal/perfumey note I can only assume is the terpenes. Taste of dark chocolate, roast malts, herbal, moderate coffee/roast bitterness. Medium-full bodied, indeed heavier than expected for a lager, makes sense that this originated as an impy stout then, I liked that a lot.
Interesting dark lager, quite unique; enjoyed it.
