It pours an opaque, thick black with a dense mocha head. The aromas are dominated by sweet milk chocolate, roasted coffee beans, and prominent bakery spices. While the initial flavor successfully mimics a rich coffee cake, the massive sweetness makes the body feel a bit syrupy. The sweet chocolate and coffee additions ultimately take over the base beer, resulting in a heavy, lingering finish that is best suited for splitting with friends.
