Pint can, courtesy of S.H.I.G., pours with a dark chocolate colored body that supports a mocha colored head of foam. The aroma offers up classic chocolate, vanilla and dark roasted malt vibes. I'm not picking up cinnamon here. The taste delivers smooth vanilla and chocolate malts allowing for snippets of dark roasted malts and sugar sweetness to poke through here and there. This attains a pleasing balance where it doesn't seem to become too sweet. After a few ounces it seems to have a sense of cola soda somehow. Pretty nice brew.

Can from Drankenhandel Leiden. Generously spiced aroma with lots of cinnamon, cocoa, chocolate cake, roasted malt, vanila, chocolate syrup. Flavour is rather sweet with a mild roasty bitterness. Body is above medium. Bit of a spice overkill at first, but I settled into it.

16 fl.oz can from Beerdome.nl. Pours out oily jet black with a two finger foamy dark beige to brown head. Looks great! Sweet cookie smell, little bit perfumed. Taste starts with a lot of cacao, sweet milky, increasing coffee, christmas spices, hop fruitieness and resin. Sticky. Nice, maybe a little bit too sweet.
