A rich and robust stout serves as the foundation for this decadent dessert beer. Raspberries lend a tart and refreshing sweetness while the addition of dark chocolate takes it to an indulgent level. Big, yet balanced, Big Luscious is perfect for sharing with friends and family. Or you can keep it all to yourself. We won’t tell.

355ml bottle at the Beer Bank, Kuala Lumpur. Poured a clear dark brown colour with a short-lived, big, frothy tan head. The aroma is roasted malt, big raspberries. This beer is all about the raspberries whatever the commercial description might say. The flavour is moderate sweet, with a smooth, roasty, tart raspberry, light dark chocolate palate. Medium to full bodied with soft carbonation. Did I mention it was all about the raspberries?

Raspberry, coffee, chocolate malt, wood, and hay aroma. Black with large brown head. Very sweet raspberry, coffee, chocolate malt, and mildly bitter woody hay flavor. Good body. Way more berry presence and sweeter than the 2014 version.

2020 Bottle from Holiday Market. Pours a black with a finger of brown head that lingers. Baker's chocolate on the nose with raspberry as it warms. Palate is very similar but a touch chalky. Lingering raspberry skin and seed on the finish with more dark chocolate flavors.
