Can, 0.44l. Aroma of chocolate, vanilla, cardamom, conifers and caramel. Pours pitch black color with medium sized soapy brown head and fair lacing. Taste starts with sweet chocolate, licorice and mastika, following is roasted, earthy and spicy, mouthfeel is warm, while finish is mild to average bitter. Full body, syrupy texture and average carbonation in palate. Brutally sweet…

can. was a bit lively when opened but i managed to pour bf it spilled over so nothing dangerous. aroma is sour dark malts, chocolate, caramel, spicy cake. flavor is sweet spicy cake, lots of cinnamon, in fact I think cinnamon is the dominant flavor, chocolate, pastry, vanilla, white chocolate, honey roasted nuts, dark malts. A very brutal pastry flavor bomb which does taste really good, but does not really taste much like beer. The aftertaste is roasted malty so there's the beer, but on the way there, it's liquid spicy/sweet cinnamon pastry.

440ml can from Chez Sophie. Pitch black pour, good creamy off-white head. Vibrant nose, sweet, desert-like. Taste is rich, creamy with very well defined vanilla, white chocolate and creamy nutty flavours. Don't often go for these sweet desert stouts any more but this is a very accomplished effort.

Sample, thanks oh6gdx! Black, minimal head. Huge cardamom aroma. Ridiculously sweet with full body and rounded, sticky mouthfeel. Cardamom, caramel, vanilla, brown sugar, white sugar, purple sugar and any other f*cking colour of sugar. Some boiled milk. But above all, aching sweetness. Revolting!

Black with a tan head. Aroma of cardamom, cloves, nutty notes, vanilla, chocolate, caramel and white chocolate. It’s got a lot going on but really too much, unbalanced. Flavour is heavy sweet. Full bodied with soft carbonation.
