Can shared at MONYO. Pours oily black with a quickly dissipating beige head. Nose is chocolate, tonka (this time it shows cinnamon and vanilla) and coffee. Taste is light booze amd chocolate, some vanilla and roasted character. Closes with a sweetish vanilla-boozy finish with hints of coffee. It has a light to medium body and soft carbo. Tasty and all if a bit too thin.

Can. Pours black with a very small head. Aroma is intense tonka, coffee, vanilla, rich caramel, prunes, brown sugar. Medium to big body. Flavour is sweet and rich, though not through the roof - the relatively low abv makes this a lot more drinkable. Lots of tonka, some vanilla and dark malts. The coffee could be a bit more prominent, I get some nice fruity coffee notes though. Caramel throughout. Lovely bittersweet finish where the coffee comes out most of all. Well done, would have liked even more coffee but delicious nevertheless.

12/XI/21 - sample @ Billies Craft Beer Festival Day 1 (Waagnatie, Antwerp), BB: n/a (2021-1336) Thanks to the Brewver crew and other beer buddies for sharing today’s beers!
Clear dark brown to black beer, practically no head. Aroma: lots and lots of tonka bean, more tonka, good roast, caramel malts, very nice! MF ok carbon, medium to full body. Taste: lots and lots of tonka, alcohol, sugary touch, malty, nice roast, lots and lots of alcohol, a bit too alcoholic actually, but otherwise a nice beer!
