Bottle from Geers. Pours hazy black with a quickly thinning, dark beige head. Aroma of toast, dark chocolate nibs, coffee roast, dark fudge, prune, tobacco, roasted nuts. Taste has sweet fudge & butterscotch, quickly dominated by dark chooclate & nuts; roasted middle has coffee & toast, ending dry & earthy hoppy with subtle lactose suddenly popping up, hints of fudge, coffee & tobacco in balance. Medium body, oily texture, fizzy carbonation. Not that creamy for a Milk Stout at already 7%, the butterscotch is only subtly present but that's okay. Good but could have been better I think.

25/VIII/20 - 33cl bottle from Geers (Oostakker), shared @ holidays (France), BB: 28/II/22 (2020-824)

Clear dark brown beer, practically no head, dissipates immediately, lots of junk floating on top of the beer, looks pretty dirty. Aroma: nice roast up front, malty, dark chocolate, some coffee, no sweet impressions though. Where’s the lactose? MF: ok carbon, medium body. Taste: good roast, bit sourish, caramel notes, slightly sweet, dark chocolate, alcohol. Aftertaste: more of an acidic touch, lots of chocolate, nice roast, soft sweetness, caramel, slightly metallic, nice bitter finish.
