What about the beer?

Colour is thick black with a modest beige head. Aroma has roasted malts, charcoal, liquorice and a thin slice of coffee. Taste starts with charred roasted malts. Some bitter hop and black coffee flavours join the fun. Towards the end salty chocolate and liquorice are added to the taste. Aftertaste has dry and malty charcoal roast.

This is a delicious heavy roasted, salty and gently bitter porter with decent coffee flavour. In the end the chocolate and liquorice perfect the exquisiteness. Like drinking thick liquid black velvet.

But no, it can't be Black Velvet by Alannah Myles. Since the label has the description "Dark Rich Sexy" and the brew more than fulfills that, we'll easily find much darker, richer and sexier voice and song. Like this:

From the 2003 album Seal IV, the song was written by Seal and Mark Batson.
