UPDATED: JAN 25, 2020 On tap at New Bohemia in Golden Valley. Deep brown, basically black in color with minimal tan head. Nose is roasty with almost a smoky quality. Hints of mild dark chocolate. Taste is more bitter than anticipated from a sweet stout. Vanilla and bitter dark chocolate. Little bit of an alcohol presence that takes over mid-sip. Smooth but rather thin mouthfeel.
