Can from the Packie Pours mostly clear dark brown with a tan head that shows great retention. Vanilla and chocolate nose and flavor. Moderate earthy hops to counter. Nice enough beer but no wow factor.

Deep dark brown coloured body with a thinnish, relatively fast-dying, but noticeable, at least, two centimetre tall light brown head that fades to just a thin layer after a few seconds. Aroma of roasted malt, a bunch of freshly brewed coffee, a nice thin layer of chocolate and some additional bitterness from toasted grains. Light to Medium-bodied; Strong roasted malt notes with some oatmeal, grain, molasses, caramelised sugars, brewed coffee and a light breadiness all come from this initially with a lot of bitterness, but no real sweetness nor depth and hardly any support from the body here, and while there is malt, this doesn't make this any thicker. Aftertaste shows some lactose, cream and vanilla notes, but the coffee, light chocolate and especially bittered roasted malt notes are by far the strongest. Overall, a bit subpar considering what I thought this would be, and this is much closer to a porter than a stout, without any real malt body and almost showing like a Mild, to be honest. Nice enough to sample, but not a great beer, nor one to be sampled all the time, even in the middle of summer, let alone when it's chilly outside. I sampled this sixteen ounce, pint-sized can, purchased from Total Wine in Alexandria (Potomac Yard), Virginia on 13-November-2022 for US$4,29 at my house here in Washington on Beer (and Day #8) of my 2022 (self-created) advent calendar.

16 ounce can. Translucent dark brown pour. Frothy tan head. Sweet roasted malt aroma. Flavor follows nose. Sweet roasted malt hints at chocolate and black coffee. Medium bodied and easy drinking.

$3.45 pint can, WW. Dark brown with an inch of beige head. Nose is dust, roasted malt, minor coffee. Coffee, light rose, roasted malt, molasses. Dry, some interesting flavors, but missing a rug to tie the beer together. A bit too light in body as well.

Canned 9/29/22, drunk 11/4/22. Brass-golden, clear, large, white head, good retention. Mild but fruity hops. Maybe some metallic or grainy notes, bit of tannin and no wort in the nose. Unfortunately, the flavor is worty with very low hopping rate. Seltzer, grain, tannin. Can barely taste any hops. I don't get why you would not toss a ton of hops in an IPA. Literally the only thing you can control in an NA beer is the hop character and you'd choose to eschew that. Weird. Other than all that, it's at least clean, albeit worty.
