Аромат топовый, шоколад в основном, какао бобы, ваниль само собой. Цвет черный, само пиво весьма маслянитое. Вкус просто божественен. Шоколад с ванилью, немного какао, выверенная сладость. Бочка едва заметна, от виски только карамельные ноты на финише, почти никакого алкоголя. Возможно лучший стаут который когда либо я пробовал.

Draught @ MBCC 2023, Copenhagen. Green Session. Thanks Guruhso. Pours black with a beige head. Deep roast, coffee, maple, vanilla and barrel. Super slick and vinous. Dry warming finish. Big one for sure.

Draught @ Mikkeller Beer Celebration Copenhagen 2023 (MBCC). Smooth and sweetish with some roastiness, powdery vanilla, barrel, syrup and toffee. A bit heavy but still tasty
