UPDATED: DEC 24, 2020 13 oz. can. Black body. Smells of brown malts, vanilla, and lots of chocolate. Tastes of vanilla up front. Some brown malts with a little bread. Chocolate rounds it out. Lingering vanilla and bitterness. Medium body. Not as good as the base Base Weight. The adjuncts aren't really helping here.

UPDATED: OCT 8, 2020 Can thanks to Anthony. Pours black with small tan head that lasts. The aroma is roast and cocoa nibs. Slick body, vanilla bean, roast, dark chocolate, dry finish, very nice.

UPDATED: JUN 6, 2020 On tap at Side Project during the holidays in 2019. A relatively quick stop and great beers.

UPDATED: MAY 28, 2019 Can shared with Andrew, Ellen, Brendan and Paul. Pours a deep brown body with soft lace. Rich nutty chocoalte nose. Mouthfeel is soft with notes of thick cocoa dust, chocolate and peanut.

Can shared at Al's. Black color with mocha head. Fudge, roasted malt, vanilla bean, rich cocoa nibs, and coffee. Medium to fuller mouth but not overly sticky. Thanks for the can Joe

Can. Pours opaque black with a large creamy tan head and good lacing. Roasty, cocoa, ashtray, vanilla. Flavor is medium sweet, light plus bitter, roast. Fullish body, creamy mouthfeel.

12 ounce can. Thanks Al. Pours black with an average tan head. Aroma of chocolate, malt, vanilla, and coffee. Taste is baker's chocolate, roasted malt, vanilla, and coffee. Above average bitterness. Rich and creamy. Very good.

12 oz can from last weekends release. Black with a thin beige head. Aroma has Hershey syrup and roasted malts. Taste is Bitter chocolate. Slight vanilla. Medium roast. Dark malt. Mild sweetness.

12 oz. can from the brewery. Pours a deep, dark, nearly opaque coffee brown with a finger of soft tan head that settles into a thick ring and thinner lasting film while lacing the glass well. Notes of roasted and toasted malts, marshmallow, cocoa, vanilla, coffee, earth, tobacco, and dark chocolate. Medium-bodied, with modest carbonation and a smooth, sweet, lightly roasty and toasty mouthfeel. The best of the Base Weight bunch so far.

Draft to stemmed glass at SPC. Looks good; a fairly opaque very dark cola with foamy beige head. Smells good too; decadent with loads of vanilla and cocoa. Tastes like it smells, but less robust. Mouthfeel is medium-bodied with some mild but pleasant bitterness. Tasty.
