Bottle. It pours almost black in the glass, topped by a dense, brown head. The aroma has some spiced notes, cinnamon standing out, along with coffee, dark chocolate, brown sugar, roasted malts and caramel sauce. It's full-bodied, sweet, sticky and smooth on the palate, with a soft carbonation. The flavor found in the nose weren't present in the flavor, else it's pretty much the same. Some vanilla notes showing up though. Roasted malts, caramel sauce, dark chocolate and some brown sugar, and a light touch of cinnamon. Lasting finish. A very pleasant one indeed, sort of like a pastry stout only more balanced. Tasteful, complex and more or less easy drinkable. 190503
