Older can I meant to spilt with someone. Pushed to the back of the fridge. Aroma and flavor are coffee, cinnamon, and chocolate notes are all still here. Full body with a smooth texture in the mouth. Overall, above average. Held up real well.

Can (2/25/20) pour from Greg & Jane's Beer and Wine. Appearance is cloudy, light brown-yellow with no sparkle, finger-width foamy head with decent retention and leggy lacing. Aroma is pretty subtle--grape, hard candy, mild tangerine. Taste is pear, yeast, tart fruit, berry, crackery malt ending. Mouthfeel is light-to-medium bodied with frothy texture, average-to-lively carbonation and dry, crackery, lightly bitter finish. Overall, pretty good but not overwhelming.

16 oz. can. Date is mis-stamp. The color is black. Aroma is weak roast, earthy grain. Flavor is roasted malt and a very mild tartness in the finish. The cherry itself is pretty hard to find. Vanilla hard to find. Body is on the thin side.

Can from Holiday Market. Pours a clearish orange gold with a finger of white foam that dissipates. Orange juicy nose with honeydew melon, pine and light peppery notes underneath. Light on the palate and easy drinking considering the abv. Pithy citrus, pineapple and light durian notes...a touch of young kiwi as well. Finishes quick and light. Very good.

January 2020 can from Holiday Market. Pours a chestnut brown with a finger of beige foam that dissipates. Light roasted coffee on the nose with mild cacao nib, toasted malt and faint tea leaf aromas. Light bodied, easy drinking with lots of coffee on the palate. Some more cacao nib and toasted grain as it warms up. Easy drinking brown with great coffee support.

Can from Holiday Market. Pours a glowing, hazy straw color with a finger of white foam that dissipates. Slight funky gooseberry and muscat aromas with pineapple, mineral and slight earthy aromas. Pine, earth and green hops on the palate. A light creamy peach and durian note underneath as it warms. Some astringency on the finish but enjoyable.
