Pours pitch black. If batman were a boozer he'd be on this. Head is light of coffee but fades pretty quickly.
Espresso flavour, with relatively sweet chocolate to back it up. Skilfully blended malts mean this tastes a lot rounder than its 4.9% would suggest. A round mouthed, mocha tonic. No engine oil but good nonetheless.

Edit after a couple more pints on tap around Melbourne - this is a solid brew without really hitting extreme heights. It demonstrates more bubble and hop first up on tap, but improves as it warms and needs some time off tap to really get its message across. Nice lingering dry cocoa flavours. Reasonable dessert stout.
