A deep dark stout with a thin dark brown head. In aroma, sweet chocolate malt with light cacao beans, light vanilla, light powdery character and faint oxidation. In mouth, a nice sweet chocolate malt with light acidity, light ground cherry, light fruity esters, nice and smooth, still solid after 6 years.

After reviewing their vanilla and coffee version, I decided to do this one, as I found the other to be pretty much cocoa and vanilla. Did not find much coffee. This one looks just like the other (dark brown, mocha head) but this one has way more lacing. Chocolate malt aromas with what seems to be some vanilla (which was in the other). The taste is roasted and chocolate malts with again, some mild bitterness from the hop, in the finish. Everything seems a little lighter than the other version. Also seems like they had the labels on the wrong bottles. Still, pretty good stouts for both.

Bouteille 341ml. De couleur noire et opaque. Nez de malt rôti et brûlé, moyen de chocolat noir, léger de chocolat au lait (notes lactiques) et de café avec quelques traces de vanille. Moyennement ronde en bouche avec un pétillement moyen et une texture à la fois légèrement huileuse et légèrement crémeuse. Moyen goût de chocolat au lait (lactique) avec des notes de grains brûlés (rappelant la fumée de cigarette) ainsi que quelques traces de vanille lors de l’entrée en bouche auquel se rajoute un goût de malt rôti avec un moyen goût de chocolat noir puis en finale un moyen-léger goût de café noir vient se rajouter. Post-goût moyen, légèrement amer de rôti-brûlé avec un léger goût de café et des notes de chocolat.

Bottle: Poured a dark black color stout with a nice light brown foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma consists of black chocolate notes with medium dry notes and light vanilla touch. Taste is also, as advertised, dominated by light dry black chocolate notes with light lactose notes and some subtle vanilla notes. Body is about average with light creamy texture and good carbonation. Not bad though I couldn’t drink multiple of those in one session.
