Pitch black, tan head, big bubbles. Aroma of roasted malts, cacao, caramel and brown sugar. Bit sour CO2 note. Malty flavour, light vanilla, light coconut, caramel. Very fizzy. Finish bitter caramel, sweet note, vanilla, hint of liquorice. Nice, but a bit too fizzy, quite a lot of CO2 for my liking
(from 33cL bottle @ home)

GBBF Day 4. Keg. Opaque dark black - brown beer, tidy tan head. Palate is airy, semi dry and has modest fine carbonation. Mild minerals. Smooth dark malts. Touch of milky sweetness. Coconut? Pretty light! Modest dark fruits and dark chocolate. A little spice on the light finish. It’s tasty but given it’s description I wanted more from it.

Bottle at home. Black with a bit fizzy brown head. Quite some coffee and roasted malts, licorice, coconut, light grassy, soft mineral notes, molasses, maybe light rum and vanilla but it might be suggestion. Medium sweet and bitter. Bit over medium bodied with fizzy carbonation. Nice beer, but all the adjuncts are a bit too much in the background.

33cl Bottle from Vonk. Black colour, creamy beige head. Aroma of coconut, wood, roasted malts, chocolate, some vanilla. Flavour is medium sweet, vanilla beans, hint of coconut, roasted malts, some chocolate, cocoa, wood, hint of chili, high alcohol burn, bitter finish. Medium bodied at best, a bit fizzy. I like the idea, but the execution is still a bit flawed. Certainly enjoyable though.

Bottle. 8% abv. Black pour. Aroma of sweet roasted malt, coffee and chocolate. Nice taste of earthy cocos, vanilla bean, milk chocolate, raisin and coffee. This is quite nice, with some more outspoken flavor, this can be great.
