This stout poured a deep black colour with a very brown head. Not bad lacing. Scents include cocoa and a little coffee. So much cocoa it smells like chocolate milk. First swig was quite good with flavours of smoke, cocoa and coffee. Finish is burnt and smoky flavours linger forever.

Beany roast aroma with decadent milk chocolate. Very dark brown colour. Large almond component to the aroma. Light, with treacly, nutty, truffley malt notes. A nice dessert of a stout, finishing with a hop flourish very late.
