32 oz growler, poured into a goblet
Appearance: Pours a gorgeous, pitch black color with a quarter of a finger of dark caramel-colored head that quickly dissolved away into a thin halo of foam that gripped the sides of the glass and formed wispy clouds that gathered in the center of the top of the beer.
Aroma: Roasted malt and tons of dark chocolate. Notes of vanilla, caramel, burnt sugar, brownies, floral hops.
Taste: Amazing! Malty up front, quickly followed by tons of chocolate, vanilla and caramel. Finally, there is no hops bitterness to speak of, which I overall prefer. Delicious!
Mouthfeel: Chewy and smoooooooth! Virtually no carbonation, but that could be because it was poured out of a growler. With an ABV of 8.4%, there is a definite presence of alcohol on the palate. A very pleasant alcohol warmth.
Overall: Damn, this is an awesome beer! Tasty as hell, and very comforting (as far as a beer can be comforting). Probably a bit too much on the sweet side for those who mind that, but I don’t so I love it! I’m definitely getting several bottles of this again!
