440ml can. Pitch black pour with a tan head. Aroma of nutty chocolate, and an oddly floral note? Taste is very sweet, chocolate, lots of peanut, vanilla, but the dominating flavour becomes very floral, saw others describing it like rosewater and honestly yeah I get that. Thick full body, smooth, booze. Not a fan of peanuts as it is and the added floral taste meant this one didn't work for me. That said, aroma, look, mouthfeel all fantastic, just a shame about the taste. An awkward one to rate.

Can from the brewery subscription. Aroma defo choc and peanut butter. Breath in and you have melted marshmallow. Dark and glossy. Cola tint. Creamy tan head. Initial heavy bitter flava impact. Them cacao nibs. Followed by artificial sweetness and peanut butter. Big flavas. Thick. Oily. Flat-average carbonation. Long astringent finish. Very enjoyable. Listened to Survive earlier in the week and it wwd synth stuff that actually worked as more than just background for a film. However, Near Dark and not really getting the reference... other than the adjuncts being US influenced. A bitter tale on US childhood flavas... dunno.
