The base beer was built with delicious and chocolate-y caramel and chocolate malts from our friends at @simpsonsmalt, and then conditioned on ungodly amounts of Madagascar vanilla beans and roasted hazelnuts. A beer made for sipping and sharing with friends, its body is very full and chewy, with no need to search for the hazelnut and vanilla additions.

Pitch black colour. Sticky sweet, this is liquid chocolate praline, with creamy vanilla flavour, hazelnut spread.
Such a decadent treat.

22oz (thx, Brian S.!) @ home shared with Alex and Andrey. Appearance: almost black with a very weak beige head. Aroma: vanilla bomb with soma malty notes, quite sweet. Taste: veeery sweet with tons of vanilla and more moderate hazelnuts. Overall: good, but IMO the body doesn't support the level of sweetness in this beer.

Keg at CW Family & Friends, Session 2 @Manchester Central, 22/02/20. Black with a tan cap that dissipates to a swirl. Nose is rich roast, chocolate, nutty tones, dark malts, coffee bean. Taste comprises sweet chocolate melt, toffee fudge, molasses, mellow roast, coffee sprinkle, brown sugar, light charr. Medium plus bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close. Decent well balanced impy … drinks well below the advertised 12% !
