Can from Tavour. Pours dark brn/blk with a moderate tan head. Aroma of coconut and roasty malt. Approaching full bodied. Flavor is roasty malt and coconut with a touch of chocolate. Not dry, but not sticky. Bitterness from the malt. Decent.

Reviewed from notes.
Can to snifter.
Appearance: pours black and is black in the glass with a quickly dissipating head which barely left any lace.
Aroma: big roasted malts, coffee sweetness, toasted nuts, coffee roasted-ness; some vanilla; authentic coconut lightly in there
Flavor: moderately blends all the prior noted aromas to semi-sweet to roasty fashion and has a nice aftertaste of the roasted coffee and vanilla
Texture: medium bodied, good as a sipper; clean smooth vibes along the tongue; finishes semi-roasty with the vanilla and coconut providing some light sweetness
Overall: a very balanced stout well worthy of returning to.

Tap at Prague Beer Fest 2025. Black body, off-white head. Huge aroma - cookies, dark chocolate, light vanilla, light roastiness. Vanilla dominates the taste, cocoa, sweet, lightly metallic, quite enjoyable, but slightly too alcoholic for my tastes!

Moon Dawg is onto something here. Really good chocolate/vanilla shake, with some toasted coconut, but there is something in the finish that takes away from the beer.

--Sample, thanks fonefan! -- Black, minimal hed. Aroma of chocolate crisps. Mid sweet with mediu to full body and clean mouthfeel, Chocolate crisp cakes with coconut and some custard. Not train wreck sweet, but with very generic flavour profile and not much sign of fermentation. Dull, but above average Pastry stout.

Rated at Pien Shop. Sweetish and slightly ashy roasty with some vanilla, hints of coffee, cocoa and creamy notes. A bit thin bodied, but tasty.
