Black and oily like a cold cup of coffee if coffee had head and was served in a pint glass. Creamy tan head stands elegantly above the rest of the beer. Roasty coffee nose, follows through with some soft milk chocolate and cocoa nibs. A solid stout, not overwhelmingly coffee like I was expecting, but still very pleasurable to drink. An amped up version of the Oil Change, which I still prefer, but this was a pleasant switch.

It poured a blackish color with a small tan head. The aroma was very much milk chocolate, tons of coffee, and roasted malts. The flavor was very much the same. Very heavy beer.

Tap at the restaurant. Poured a pitch black color with a creamy tan head. Aroma was milk chocolate, loads of coffee, vanilla, and roasted malts. Flavor was much of the same. Very thick and oily. Great beer.

Mostly the taste of the Oil Change with hints of coffee. Coffee aroma but not intense coffee taste. Decent.
