12.7 oz bottle. this may be one of the most inspiring beers I’ve had the pleasure to drink. It starts with a smokey sweet fragrance with coffee and roasted barley scents. The only way to describe the appearance is darker than night with a full dark head. It sips like liquid gold. It has a flavor of coffee with an almost honey taste. It has virtually no bitterness yet despite that it is both well balanced and overwhelming in a good way. Find it and enjoy a singular beer.

Aroma is quite good; very full, quite a bit of alcohol; crystal & caramel malts; toffee. The flavor starts sweet and chocolaty with lots of toffee, then morphs into a lot of coffee in the finish with some good roasted bitterness. Liqueur like alcohol. Some sips it feels just too over the top and some sips it’s wonderful. Very rich, yet the high ABV keeps the palate thin. Very chocolaty, lots of coffee.

Deep black pour, no head. The aroma is licorice, coffee, chocolate and booze. Lots of chocolate and coffee in the flavor, a bit of licorice, salt, caramel, and alcohol. Nice thick mouthfeel with a bit of alcohol warmth. Quite good, but a little too much of everything. Not a huge fan of the salty bitterness either.

Pours pitch black with no head whatsoever. Aroma is alcohol with chocolate and coffee coming out if you swish the beer around for a bit. Flavor is a little tart with licorice and coffee coming through most heavily. The finish has quite an alcoholic burn to it. Medium bodied as well with a hint of warming to it. Not too impressed.

Pours with a black body topped by a thin to medium thick, light brown head with some lacing. It’s slightly sweet yet bitter with notes of malt and chocolate as well as strong alcohol esters. Full bodied, slightly dry and a touch warming.
