Bottle shared by Sean, thanks! Poured black with a brown head that dissipated slowly to the edges. Aroma was full of hazelnut with some sweet grains/cereal, a bit of coffee and roasted malts. Flavor had much more roasted coffee and malt with the hazelnut coming out in the finish.

Huge thanks to my sister Lori for shipping this growler down for all of us to enjoy. Pours very dark with modest mocha head. The full aroma has loads of hazelnut nuttiness dominating the nose with supporting notes of coffee and roastiness in the background. The taste is very nice. I get a flavor rush of roasty malts becoming hazelnut goodness. By midway the coffee comes through to join the solid hazelnut and abundance of roasty malts. It ends with malt roastiness and a hint of molasses. This thing was in the growler for a month and as a consequence I wasn’t expecting too much. But this held up perfectly and tasted great.

growler courtesy of ibrew2or3. What an amazing treat, thanks Dave for this one. Pours dark brown nearly still with no head. Aroma is loaded with coffee, malts and an amazing dough/cookie like nose. Taste, light bitter coffee with one outstanding sweet hazelnut palate mixed with chocolate and hints of lactose for a clear smooth creamy palate. Mix of hazelnut and chocolate reminded many at the tasting of the goodness of Nutella chocolate spread.
