Forget the notion this is a beer style that has had its day.
Instead, think of it as honeycomb covered in chocolate, because that’s exactly what it tastes like: rich, unctuous and an absolutely decadent treat of a beer.

Nice roast, cocoa nibs, milk chocolate. Very thin mouth feel, light carb. Sweet, roasty finish, soft grassy notes, and hints of coffee.

33cl can, BB 30/07/2025.
Brune foncée, col épais et crémeux blanc-cassé tenace. Léger filament doré au verre.
Arôme délicat sur des notes oscillants entre grillé/chocolat et torréfié (effet frosted flakes) - le lactose perce en appui avec un léger bouquet céréales.
Palais garde une approche délicate du lactose - présent mais sans venir adoucir l'expérience avec une base de céréales trop encombrante. Petite note de café/torréfié avec une fin amertume houblonné en fin de bouche - finement anisée et pointe de chocolat amer.
Plutôt sympa pour un milk stout.

Ich verstehe die Durchschnittsnote nicht. Für alkfrei ist das top, schön röstig, cremig, Bitterkeit dominiert über Süsse.

Judging by the matching description on the brewer’s website, this goes by the name “Galactic Extra Dark”, which is what I ordered at a local brewpub. It pours very dark brown with a small off white head. There’s a mild roast malt aroma. The flavor is of roast malt, coffee, and maybe a little hops. It’s not as creamy and lacks some of the body I’d expect in a stout, and the carbonation seems high. It puts me more in mind of a mediocre schwarzbier.
