On tap at Pinocchio’s in Media, PA. Number one with a bullet. Jet black pour. Small tan ring. Aroma of roasted malt, oak, coconut. Flavor is rich and boozy. Huge notes of bittersweet chocolate, vanilla, toasted coconut and treacle. Thick and chewy. This is a real heavyweight brew! Like eating an Almond Joy bar while sipping a fine bourbon. Outstanding!

750 ml bottle from brewery. Amber orange pour. Small creamy beige head. Earthy, malty aroma hints at funk and bubblegum. Flavor is subtle funk, sourdough bread, honey, lemon pith. Hints of dried apricot, toasted malt. Grape must.
