Reviewed from notes.
Can to snifter.
Appearance: pours jet black and retains the jet black color in the glass with a thin cap of a khaki foamy head which dissipated within several sips, no lace
Aroma: milk chocolate up front, vanilla sweetness, light coconut and subtle roasted almonds
Flavor: leans closer to the sweet side with the milk chocolate and vanilla; the roasted almonds and coconuts still seem to be held way back; finishes pretty sweet with the milk chocolate and vanilla
Texture: medium bodied, good as a sipper; some smoothness
Overall: nice enough pastry impy stout but $11 for a can, woweeee, do they think they're Hill Farmstead or Tree House? Though my buddy paid for this, I don't see myself coming back to this due to that price.

Schenkt pikzwart met een lichtbruine kraag met grote bellen, die vrijwel meteen weer inzakt tot nul. Geur is zoet, noten, kokos, artificieel, chocola. In de mond is dat allemaal nog een graadje meer. Smaak is zeer zoet, chocola, kokos, bounty. Vrij scherp alcoholgevoel, heet in de keel. Medium body. Afdronk is iets geroosterd en bitterig. Man man, niks voor diabetici. Ook niet echt voor mij overigens.
