Taste Notes:
I was very happy with the way this turned out. Very close to the original. Black opaque liquid with a small tan head. This quickly faded and was replaced by just a thin line of off whitish lace around the rim. Good glass lace. Highly roasted malts, very forward. Lots of hints of coffee, chocolate, and nuts. Very robust taste and smell.
