Draft. A black beer with a dark brown head. The aroma has notes of chocolate, chocolate, chocolate, as well as vanilla, and roasted malt. The flavor is sweet with notes of alcohol, roasted malt, vanilla, rye, and chocolate, leading to a dry roasted finish.

Bottle (shared at koht, thanks Kairi & co). Pours black with brownish head. The head doesn’t stay. Aroma is very sweet, vanilla, chocolate, malt. Flavor follows the nose, has some rye spiciness and is slightly acidic. Finish has some dark choco and vanilla. Alcohol is well covered. Overall: good enough, not a fan of vanilla driven brews tho.
