Malty, roasted, sweet taste with notes of sweet espresso, treacle, cacao, dark chocolate, sour cherries, red fruit, port wine and a sweet and vinous finish with a mild cacao bitterness in the finish. Full body, sweet. Strong and sweet with lots of chocolate, coffee and cherries. Very nice.

12 February 2022. At Winter Belgian Beer Geek Gathering. Many thanks for hosting, Tim, and cheers to the whole crew!

Hazy black, thin, beige head. Aroma of sweet cherry, chocolate sauce, cake, vanilla, date, fudge. Taste has sweet date, prune & fig, oddly hidden cherry in a chocolatey malt profile with syrupy, creamy edges. Herbal hoppy finish, bit spicy and roasted, chocolate filled with fruit liqueur, warming Maraschino-like alcohol. Very tasty but not really balanced.

Pours black, small tanned head. Scent is intense, roast, dark chocolate. Hidden traces of the cherry. Taste is full, roasty, sharp, sweet, chocolate, raisins. Don't really recognize the cherry myself. Reminds me more of a PX myself.

44cl can @ Brewver Winter Gathering '22, thanks Amina. no BB.
Noire profond, filament huileux doré au verre, col fin blanc-cassé.
Arôme est chargé un max sur le smalts, dont pas mal de chocolat - biscuité avec un rappel de type Oreo cookies - lee côté cerise est là sans être trop intense.
Palais est encore à fond dans le jeu du pastry stout - pour moi, c'est trop de tout - trop tout, trop de ce côté presque 'adjuncts' douceur chocolatée perdurant en ayant l'impression de siroter un gâteau forêt noire où la cerise prend une place un peu en retrait.

Can. Pours cloudy very dark brown with airy jut stavle dark tan head. Clear aroma of malt, nuts, coffee and yeast, with touches of caramel and biscuit. Sweet flavour of chocolate, malt, caramel, and dried fruit, with bitter notes of roast and hops and touches of cake. Bitter, roasty aftertaste with dry notes and sweet, cakey touches. Ooooh... I just love such teddybearlike things. Dark, heavy, sweet and sticky. Just my kinda stout.

Can, 13.5%. The aroma starts off metallic, or perhaps it is just the fruit. Black colour, seems opaque. Good stable creamy brown head. The flavour is very sweet with a distinct fruit note. There is also some metal in the flavour, unfortunately. After a few sips, it tastes more like cherry, so it is probably just me. Fat and creamy mouthfeel. One would have to be a teddy bear to really enjoy this much sweetness.
