On draught at BrewDog Leicester. Purplish brown and a bit translucent. Light chocate fudge notes on the nose, some coffee, some ash, a bit of malt biscuit which I suppose could stand in for the base of the cheesecake. Taste is amazing, sweet with a heavy roast malt bitterness neater the finish. Salted caramel and raspberry coulis in the aftertaste. Heavy carbonation. Subtle as a brick, but still delicious.

On keg at Brewdog Lothian Rd, Edinburgh. Appearance - opaque black, more cola than coffee. Thin decent lacing. Nose - cheesecake very evident. Some sort of berry fruit too. Also chocolate malt note. Taste - definitely raspberry this time an with creamy chocolate on its tail. Palate - medium plus in body, very creamy in texture but extremely drinkable. Overall - lovely beer.

Draft @ Brewdog Brussels. Noire, col léger café au lait. Le tout servi un peu trop froid et a du réchaffer uen bonne demi-heure. Arôme est framboise crémeuse restant assez dominante sans être dans le surfait, on retient bien le bouquet malté grains, chocolaté - caramel le totu avce des notes de jus de framboise et gardant un côté naturel un peu aigrelet me^me au nez et finement terreux. Palais est malté marqué, framboise en accompagnement donnant une petite touche aigre qui se balance bien avec le chocolaté. Épais avec une pointe réchauffante des 9% sans être écœurante. Retrouve aussi en toute fin de bouche une once de fumé assez discret et une fine amertume houblonnée. Finement collant aux lèvres sur la fin et rappel de confiture de framboise en gardant l'approche fruitée naturelle.

Bottle from BrewDog online store Pours black with tiny head. Taste is sweetish, dominated by raspberries. Cheesy bit is softening it and that also makes alcohol dangerously hidden. Good.

Bottle from BrewDog online. Black body with a tan head that holds well. Steady carbonation. Good lacing. Aroma of raspberry, nuts and brownie. Flavour of blueberry, espresso and metal. Medium body with a slick texture. Soft fizz. It’s a bit sharper than I expected.

At a tasting, medium stable bubbly head, opaque black color, aroma of raspberries and smoke with toasted dark bread behind, flavor of rapsberries and dark chocolate with dark bread and a hint of coal, nicely balanced and integrated, not to heavy. Excellent, hughly enjoyable.
