A deep dark stout with a thin lacing mocha head. In aroma, chocolate malt with dark fruits, light vanilla, coffee, nice and smooth. In mouth, a nice sweet chocolate malt with dark fruits, coffee, alcohol warmth, molasses, very nice and rich. On tap at l'autre oeil.

Pours oily black with a moderate tan head. Notes of rather sweet caramel and toffee malt coupled with a bold roast quality and heavy earthy coffee, overall balance of a heavily sweetened espresso with chocolate and ash undertones, vanilla quite sublte, leathery hits in the nose. Sweetness is counteracted by heavy roasty coffee bitterness in the finish and a hint of alcohol. Medium full oily body with soft carbonation. Note a typical pastry stout, more like a heavily coffee-infused roast forward stout. Solid if you love bold coffees.
