Tall can bought by S. Had at home after return from SF. Opaque black with tan head. Aroma is sweet coffee chocolate treacle. Taste is similar. Palate is a bit creamy. Not much tiramisu specifically but generally standard pastry stout.

440ml can. Poured a clear dark brown, almost black colour, with a short-lived, fizzy tan head. The aroma is roasty malt, coffee and hazelnuts. The flavour is over moderate sweet, with a rich, roasty, coffee, nutty, chocolate, light liqourice palate. Over medium bodied with average carbonation. Nice, but somewhat light and over-carbonated for a stout.

Can. Morrison’s, I think. Nearly black. Thin and messy, lasting, beige head. Nose is pretty much nailed on tiramisu. Taste is high on the sugary sweetness, although there’s a nice powdered cocoa bitterness to it. Drinks well easy at the ABV. Smooth and viscous. Fine carbonation. Decent bitterness to finish. I drank this chilled to fuck, which might have been it’s saving grace, because it is bonkers sweet, but it disappeared pretty quick.

Can at THT June. Black with small brown head. Massive vanilla, sugar, lactose, chocolate, hazelnut. Extremely sweet, light bitter. Almost full bodied. Too sweet for me.

440ml can shared with three others on 31st May 2021. Sat on my patio in the afternoon sun. It's as black as the Ace of Spades and has a tan head. Coffee, slick coffee!
