on nitro-pours a cascading creamy light brown head that leaves a coating and black color. Aroma is sweet dark malt-cocoa/roasty. Taste is dark malt-chocolate/cocoa/roasty, some earthy hops. Creamy mouthfeel. Easy.

Nitro… Mostly clear, very dark brew that shows burnt orange when held up to the sun. Mid-sized, creamy, off-white head that sticks around throughout. Creamy, chocolaty, toasted nut bouquet – cashews and pistachios. Medium-bodied and ultra creamy with very low carbonation. Deeply roasted, bittersweet flavor. Moderate bitterness lingers well into the finish.

Tap at BB. Pours a dark brown with a cascading creamy tan head(nitro, think). Aroma has a ton of chocolate, some butterscotch and light roast notes. Flavor is loaded with milk chocolate, some fruit and toffee notes. I enjoyed this quite a bit.
