500ml (thx, Sasha, for buying and, Joe, for keeping, Josh, for bringing!!! Hahaha 😂) @ SF shared with Phill and Josh.
Aroma: hazelnut bomb, some American oak and chcocolate.
Taste: along the same lines, kinda on the thinner side for a 14%. Finishes with some earthy bitterness coming from cocoa.
Overall: a disappointment. Literally. Expected it to be one of the best MS, but it's definitely not. It is a pleasant beer, but doesn't reach the standard set by HM over the years, unfortunately.

Dark brown. The aroma has a lot of hazelnut, I mean a lot of hazelnut. Some nice umami richness, especially the cocoa toast. On the palate, lots of rich sugars, alcohol and a fair bit of hazelnut, with a good cocoa character as well. As usual, this is excellent.
