From the label

“BEASTLY BE AFRAID, VERY AFRAID We fear the things that live in the dark for good reason - they mean to do us real harm. Beware! This shady stout has been sleeping in the shadows for 11 months waiting it's release. Say a Hail Mary and have your holy water handy before you sit down and wake this boozy barrel-aged beast because Black Magic is undoubtedly what pure darkness tastes like.”
