The beer pours black with a tight, tan-coloured head. A beautiful, complex aroma of vanilla, caramel, crème brulée, toasty malt & subtle spice. The beer is full-bodied, rich & creamy. Intense flavours of chocolate, vanilla, and caramel with background coffee & brown sugar. The oak contributes to the gorgeous silky texture, and the vanilla balances beautifully with chocolatey flavours from the malt. Perfectly balanced, if we may say so ourselves.
