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.
