12% version, might be they do a new version since 2018? 0.33 l can bought at Angry Moose, Čakovec to share with little Dina. Pours black or very dark brown, small to medium brown head, diminishing. Aroma of roasted malts, burnt, sweet coffee, light vanilla. Chocolate cake, quite syrupy. Light soy sauce, light licorice, some dark fruit, some wood, definitely some alcohol, some rubber, some kind of dark liqueur. Flavour goes from liquid chocolate, chocolate milkshake, dark cherry to carob. Sweet, smooth and sticky. Soft carbonation. Alcohol hidden in the mouthfeel. Some mineral quality on the palate, salted caramel. Finish kinda light, but pleasant.

Tap at Mikkeller Tokyo. Nice. Taste has the vanilla creaminess with a bit of a boot to it. Booze is there, but feels pretty easy going. Rich and chocolatey, bit of caramel, light fruitiness. Maybe a hint of spice but maybe that's just the alcohol. Finish is long and lingering. Aroma is mostly sweetness, vanilla and chocolate, light roast there too.

Dark brown, lots of vanilla, soft dark chocolate, and rich dark malts. Good complexity of dark malt, and that’s part of the appeal. I'm not big on vanilla, so for me this should suck, but it very much does not.
