Can @ Patricks. Clear dark amber, close to black body under a small beige head. Strong, almost intense aroma of chocolate, vanilla, caramel and nut cream. Taste has sweet malt, chocolate, syrup, nuts, coffee, vanilla and low bitterness. Fine body with same aftertaste. Like an overdose of sweet stuff this one, still quite interesting for a few sips.

Can, at Patricks. It's more or less black in the glass with a small, dense dark beige head. Quite sweetish aroma with caramel, chocolate and a strange fruity touch. It's full bodied and lightly warming, with a gentle bitterness. Caramel, chocolate and some fruityness in the flavor. Medium length finish. Nice. 240223

Opaque dark brown, tan head. Flavour is sweet with a slightly peppery kick. Flavour has vanilla, a little chilli kick, some milk chocolate, sweet malt. Nicely balanced, a touch of lingering heat. Just enough to add something a little different. Nice sweetness into the finish to even it out and some boozy warmth too. Very nice.
