33 cl bottle from Jason's Marketplace Kaohsiung - Jason's Hanshin Store. Sampled on October 6, 2017.Marked 2017.03.08.Clear dark brown to black color, tan head. Sweet, roasted, mineral taste. Mineral aftertaste, hint of coffee. Some warming alcohol. Fizzy mouthfeel, low bitterness. Roasted, toffee scent.Had my hopes up, but not that good.

Deep dark brown coloured body with a thinnish, light brown head, about a centimetre tall. Aroma of roasted malt, oats, longan berries, cherries, caster sugar, lactose and a deep dose of alcohol near the end. Medium-bodied; Rich chocolatey flavour with a lot of nuts, earth, lactose, cream and even fruity flavours that are very noticeable and rich, but the malt and sugars really dominate here. Aftertaste shows a nice chocolatey bite with some grain, alcohol, milk and sugar, along with some longan, fruity and nutty bites. Overall, a surprisingly nice stout with a rich fruity and lactose flavour throughout. I sampled 33 cL bottle purchased from Jason’s Market Place in Taipei, Taiwan a few hours ago on 24-July-2017 for NT$130 sampled at my hotel room here in central Taipei, Taiwan on 24-July-2017.

Dark brown colored, small off white head. Aroma is of some malt and caramel, some apples and oxidation. Taste is medium sweet malt, apple, caramel, some cardboard. Seems like color caramel... To be avoided.

Bottled 330ml. -Interesting wide bottle neck. Darker cola coloured, minimal off-white head, dog food and earth in the nose. Sweet perfumed malty, candied apples, notes of honey and touch of cardboard and caramel with dry undefined notes (lychee maybe). Messy and not good. Stout only in the name.
