smells great! lots of chocolate inthe aroma, very sweet, and nice.
Body is quite thin, and watery. Flavour is pretty watery also, and very thin, from that aroma you would expect something thick. aftertaste is like a big whiff of cocoa powder. Flavour doesnt live up to the aroma. A nice try, but pretty thin.

Bottle. Dark brown with a cm of tan head that fades fast. Aroma of chocolate, briochish bread, light spices. Taste is a tad milky as well but the chocolate is bittersweet and there is a nip of bitterness at the end too. Decent body for the ABV. Straightforward but pretty satisfying.

65 ml bottle served in water stemmed glass (not the best glassware, if you ask me.) It pours dark brown, moka-colored head that lasts a blink. Aroma is quite high: chocolate and more chocolate. Some vanilla, some capuccino coffee. Taste is soft, light, dry, watery, quite savory. Just a hint of bitterness. So-so.

Strong forward artificial cocoa flavour. But it's a nice dessert-style beer. Worth a recommendation for sure, but would be nice to have a little more of its malt flavour on top.

On tap. Pours a hazy dark brown with a medium, creamy, long lasting, tan head that laces. Sweet aroma of roasted malt, dark chocolate and vanilla. Sweet flavour of roasted malt, dark chocolate, coffee, caramel and vanilla with a dry, mildly bitter finish. Light body with a watery texture and soft carbonation.
