0,5l bottle from Citymarket Sello, Espoo. Clear, red brown beer with good and stable, cloudy head. Aroma has lots of toffee, vanilla, chocolate sweets and milk. Taste has toffee, chocolate, vanilla, roasted coffee and malts. Low bitterness. Medium body. Delicious!

Bottle at home in Hackney - sourced via Ocado, I believe. Pours clear chestnut with a creamy, light khaki head. Quite sweet and simple, but I actually enjoy it. It's like a session pastry stout. Plenty of liquidy caramel and toffee, some vanilla, bready malts, low bitterness. Medium bodied with fine to average carbonation, lightly oily. Sweet finish with subtly toasted brown bread, more lightly gooey toffee, vanilla. Enjoyable in a guilty pleasure kind of way.

Fles gedeelt door Koen. Het is een diep roodbruin bier met een dun schuim. Het heeft een zoete toffee achtige geur. De smaak is toffee en pudding achtig met een gebrande caramel en moutige nasmaak.

Smell of toffee, roasted malt, some chocolate. Aroma of toffee, coffee, sugar, roasted malt, maybe a faint of grass. Very sweet, slightly burnt bitter. Lively carbon.

500ml bottle. Poured a murky dark brown colour with a mostly lasting frothy off white head. The aroma is malt, big sticky toffee pudding as it says on the label, light floral hop. The flavour is moderate sweet with a smooth, toffee, fake sugar, aromatic hop bitter palate. Medium bodied with soft carbonation.

Bottle: Clear, deep chestnut-amber coloured, big and slowly collapsing tanned head, moderate perfumed and kind of artificial bitter-sweet nose of toffee, cheap chocolate, caramel and artificial sweeteners, a certain bitterness caused by cacao in the background; mild to moderate bitter-sweet flavour, light to medium bodied, quite soft; gets even drier in the slightly lingering bitter-chocolatey finish. Disgusting aroma, nevertheles drinkable, but no repetition necessary...

Bottle that Dad shared - cheers! A novelty beer from the normally underwhelming Wells stable - a recipe for disaster right? I thought so too, but I was wrong. It's the colour of a liquid sticky toffee pudding with cream on top. It smells of... you guessed it... sticky toffee pudding too. And bless my little cotton socks if it doesn't taste of a certain dessert too - it's got the dates, it's got the toffee and it's got the deep treacley richness of the sponge too. And yet... there's still a malty, earthy bitter that you can just about discern in the background. I thought that the beer wouldn't go with the sweet pud, but they've got the balance just right, with the beer being just about enough to keep a cap on the sweetness and make it ever so drinkable. It's still definitely a dessert beer (it would go well with Christmas pudding I think), but it works, and it's a whole lot of fun into the bargain. Well done Wells and I'm sorry for doubting you (although probably only sorry up until the point that I have another one of your beers).
