Canned Sexual Chocolate
BBA & coffee-infused. My first-ever can of SC. Terrific. The coffee flavors balance well against the barrel aging. Top notch juice.
"Amazing what a minute can do."

I had the opportunity to sample that beer several times in the 90s while visiting my parents and brother in Oregon as we enjoyed skiing on some fine Oregon "concrete" (known in the Rockies as Colorado Champagne, IIRC) on Mt. Hood on multiple occasions and once at Mt. Bachelor.
