Soft and smooth, fairly rich taste wise but quite thin. Flavour is good, though, with a nice amount of chocolate, some light roast and plenty of both coconut and coffee. Not sure where all those barrels ended up, but can't have it all, apparently.

Back with a small foamy tan head. Alcohol slaps you, then dough, coconut a s vanilla. Long finish. Booziness overwhelms. Moderately full bodied.

Bottle from De Bierliefhebber's Black Friday sale. Pours a black colour and a dense mocha coloured head with s small layer retention. Aroma's: coffee, coconut, vanilla, dark chocolate. Retronasal there's coffee, roasted malts, vanilla, light (coffee?) sourness. Flavour is moderate sweet, coconut, light roasty bitterness, light coffee-ish (?) sourness. Medium bodied. Finishes with roasty bitterness. Hopefully the sour notes are not a sign of infection, as I encountered with several previous Baptists.
