Draft at the Buckley location. Pours jet black with a dense and creamy dark tan head. Big sweet chocolate nose, lots of residual sugars clearly knocking around, just loaded with dense malty caramel nougaty chocolatey candy bar sweetness right from the drop. Creamy thick body, like chocolate milk, with not too much more carbonation. Some mild sweet roast, but mostly heavy chocolate and candy bar presence, mid palate is almost sticky and so is the finish. Thick and heavy and loaded with wet maltiness. Not unpleasant, despite the heavy sugariness, but definitely far to the sweet side of the flavor spectrum.
