Bottle from clownoisseur, thanks: pours blackmwith a small brownish head. Aroma is coconut, loads of chocolate, and hints of vanilla. Taste is fairly sweet, hefty bit of coconut in taste, large milky chocolate, light residual bitterness. There is a sort of cocoa powder vibe. Alcohol is well covered, and the body is not too heavy, but this still feels like a large beer with the 12.5% abv definitely being felt. Tasty.

2019 Bottle from Holiday Market. Pours a thick and viscous, deep brown to black with a finger of brown head that dissipates. Big fudge-y milk chocolate aromas with vanilla and melted brownies and ice cream. Sweet on the palate, but not overly so. Enough light roasted malt to push back on the vanilla. Smooth and rich, well-rounded and full-bodied stout. Creamy vanilla and brownie sundae with a touch of coffee, roasted malt on the finish. Killer stout.
