Can. Black pour with lots of big floating chunks. Aroma of strong spices, ginger, coconut, cardemom, vanilla, chai herbs, malt, caramel, chocolate and cherry. Taste is a real explosion of flavors, with lots of ginger, coconut, chai spice, cardemom, chocolate, fruity coffee, cherry, some malt and a long spicey finish. Delicious spice stout.

Canned 30.04.19. Big chunk of coconut floating around. Gingery smell, something else spicy too. Pitch black, no foam. Taste is very chai: cardemom and some ginger, and lots of coconut. No chocolatey sweetness, only lightly sweet, and some acidity. Meh.

19/10/2019. Can from Hopsters, Ipswich. Pours black with a short lasting tan coloured head, which left an oily film and some large off-putting chunks. Big complex evolving aroma including cardamom, allspice, chocolate, coconut, aniseed, vanilla, ginger and dark fruits, Medium plus sweetness and light bitterness. Full body, oily slick texture, flat carbonation. Bit of a curious one, enjoyed aspects of it but not the big hitter I’d hoped.
