Dark brown, thin head, big cinnamon and vanilla nose, similar taste but of course cinnamon smells better than it tastes. Good stout backdrop. Nice pastry character on this.

Dåse fra Stoutshop. Den er sort med et flot brunt skum. Aromaen er sød, ristet malt og brunsviger. Den er pænt sød og har en lidt tør finnish.

473ml can. Sweet, heavy and roasty with some nutty pecans, cinnamon, chocolate, maple syrup, hints of bourbon, vanilla and cocoa powder. Okay, a bit thin bodied though.

--Canned, thanks Bearbeer! --Black, creamy beige head. Aroma of pecans, maple syrup and cinnamon. Very sweet with full body and sticky mouthfeel. Caramel and cinnamon, pecans and treacle. Low bitterness. Not over-sticky, but really simplistic. Like a sticky bun.
