8.6/10 Appearance 10 Aroma 8 Flavor 9 Texture 10 Overall 7.5
Can from Hopduvel. Cloudy black, stable, frothy, dark beige head. Intense aroma of maple syrup, burnt pancake, espresso, Kahlúa, chocolate sauce, dark fudge, pecan pie, vague black olive. Taste has sweet dark chocolate, maple syrup, pecan & caramel turning towards a deep bitterness of espresso with a touch of vanilla and umami black olive. Bitter earthy & peppery hops in the finish, slightly herbal & woody maple, ongoing bitter coffee roast and bittersweet dark chocolate; a firm dash of Kahlúa-like alcohol. Full body, oily-syrupy texture, soft carbonation. Rich, full, decadent, brings me right back to San Diego.

It does show some real fruity tartness, but there's too much of that Rouge-like candy flavour as well.
