Can. Opaque dark brown beer, good tan head that lasts no time at all. Smooth palate, decent fine carbonation. Smooth dark malts, a decent dark chocolate. Vanilla is pitched appropriately, what isn't is a tart fruitiness that to me is at odds with the concept and the finished product. Oh dear, this was such a solid series and yet many of the recent entries have gone way off the rails to me.
