Draught Huge, layered cream to tan head, fast retreating over pitch-black beer. Quite roasted nose, coffeemilk, roasted nuts and indeed lactose. Dry-ish roasted stout with a not-quite-sweet flavour - pastry as in patissier instead of marshmallow/doughnut America. Bit herbal flavour too, as in bay leaf, rosemary. Warming up, chocolate. Feels probably better bodied than it is; quite slick to viscous, creamy. Nice milkstout, featuring the best of milkstout, and good things from regular stout.

Easy smooth sweet stout.

Black beer, thick off white head. Smellmis malty with a little hop. Flavour has toasty malt, a little liquorice, some creaminess. Smoth, warming and very drinkable.
