0.33 l can from 'Etre Gourmet', best before January 2022. Pitch black with no head to speak of. Sweetish, malty, slightly roasty aroma of caramel, nougat, praline, vanilla, hazelnut and some bourbon. Very sweet, malty, slightly roasty taste of nougat, praline, caramel, vanilla, quite some bourbon and some hazelnut, followed by a medium long, gently roasty-bitter finish with pleasant bourbon flavours. Medium to full body, oily mouthfeel, flat. Very nice again, not as great as the Heaven Hill variant but still a great Dessert Stout. Could just be a little thicker, a bit of carbonation would be fine as well, but that's moaning on a very high level.
