Pours with a pure onyx body, the quickly receding head is the color of espresso crema, fading into a lacing of tight, deep tan bubbles.

👃 WHAT AM I SMELLING?

Roasted coffee and roasted malt without any burnt notes, then chocolate and hints of cherry.

👅 HMMM, THAT TASTES LIKE…
There’s alot going on here. Roasty malts and coffee with maple syrup balancing each other. There are notes of both milk chocolate and dark chocolate winding their way through and making themselves comfortable alongside dates and brown sugar. All of that wraps up with a surprisingly dry fresh coffee character.

😋 THERE’S A PARTY IN MY MOUTH!
Full bodied, yet problematically easy to drink. The body is super smooth without being heavy and sticky. The carbonation gently lifts it off the tongue. When licking your lips, you’re rewarded with lingering sugars. And after it all there is a gentle alcohol warmth.

🍻 TL;DR
Complex. There is a new character to experience and enjoy with each sip. This will make a great holiday breakfast beverage! I might have an Irish coffee replacement here.
