330ml can. Pours black with a tan head. Aroma of tonka, vanilla, dark chocolate, cinnamon. Taste is very rich, plenty of tonka, vanilla, dark chocolate and a huge whack of cinnamon (almost too much), bittersweet but mostly sweet finish. Medium-full bodied.

Draught at Lauter, medium dense stable creamy head, opaque black colour, chocolate and cinamon, quite strong praline sweetness, hints of ash and candid fruit noticable bitter chocolate bitterness. Really nice and enjoyable just a bit overly sweet.
