Black colour, small brown head. Aroma is toffee, nutty, coconut and some chocolaty tones. Flavour is very similar with some rather sweet and somewhat boozy tones.

Smooth, sweetish and slightly roasty with some vanilla, creamy milky lactic notes, cocoa, coconut, nutty notes and earthiness. A bit unbalanced, too much lactic creaminess here.

Tasty tasty coconut bomb, perfect balance of vanilla and coconut, macaroon vibes. I don't get much lactose vibes either but who knows in the valley of milk stouts, at the very least it isn't a bad lactose vibe. It's delish, thanks Art D. !

Power tasting at Salesforce, bottle
Pitch black colour, oily. Coconut and cocoa in the aroma, strong. Sweet without being syrupy; strong dark chocolate flavour (very good), coconut, touch of coffee, a kiss of alcohol.
Wonderful.

Bottle: Poured a pitch-black color stout with a dark brown foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of sweet black chocolate notes with some vanilla and coconut and some lactose. Taste is also a smooth mix of sweet black chocolate notes with some vanilla and lactose notes with some well-balanced coconut. Body is full with nice creamy texture and good carbonation with no real apparent alcohol notes. Super smooth sweet stout with good balance and drinkability for this type of beer.
