473ml can. Intense, chocolate saucy and coconutty with some toffee, fudge, vanilla, coconut and dry nutty roastiness. Pretty nicely balanced and tasty. Great one.
No head, almost flat. Thick, oily, sweet and boozy. Strong toffee and coconut, vanilla, some roasty coffee, nuts and cocoa in the finish. Rich, decadent. Why aren't all non-ba stouts like this? Excellent.

Can from Tavour to glass. Pours deep brown with almost no head. Aroma is slight roast with sweet vanilla and coconut. Slight chocolate. A bit of almond in the flavor.
Gnarly good for that much distro, can't wait until this is the norm with no lactose! Granted it comes with forager experience but it means it's at least possible on a large scale! Would be nicer in a 12oz or 8oz can but no complaints. Nutty toffee choco💣

Can from Tavour. Pours dark brn/blk with a slight dark tan head. Aroma is strong with toasted coconut and chocolate. Full bodied. Flavor is chocolate, toasted coconut, nuts and caramel/toffee. Not to mention sweet burnt malt. Not dry. Burnt malt bitter helps that. A little heat touches the tongue. Killer pastry stout.
