Bomber from LDB. It's pretty dark, and pours thick. Nice little hazelnut chocolate aroma. On the palate, it's nice and thick. Mostly chocolatey, almost syrupy, lots of residual body and sweetness, I guess a lot of lactose. The hazelnut isn't super powerful on the palate, but it's there. It's interesting because it has the richness of a bigger beer. I'm always wary of lower abv pastry stouts because they're usually too thin. But this gets there.

Pours a very black brown with very modest dark beige head. The aroma is good sweet barley and oatmeal, baker's chocolate, sugary hazelnut. Flavour is smooth hazelnut, chunky unsweetened chocolate, soft coffee notes. Good dry finish and crisp carbonation but I'd prefer a little more sweetness. Otherwise a very nice sweet porter.
