Opaque pour, nice dark head, though thin and died off rather quickly. Get a bit of a metallic whiff in the nose but mellowed into milk chocolate and coffee. Taste is strongly coffee and very toasted malt. Mouthfeel is actually really good. Sips fill the mouth; I can feel the weight but don't feel like I have to chew through it. Lingering finish, a little bit sticky.
First thoughts were of Old Rasputin. I think it's comparable, a little less bitter and somewhat smoother, and I'd like to try them side by side. For a volume-quality:price ratio, I think it could be a really good buy.
