Ale of the Illuminati. Velvety mouthfeel and full bodied richness. A fruity hop bite balances this creamy milk stout.

Half-pint, shared with Frau Eva, cask at Maypole in Cambridge. Deep ruby-black in the glass. Stable beige head. Crocheted lacing. Mid-sweet chocolate malty nose, lightly roasted. Taste of chocolate malts on a backbone of lactose. Some hints of dark fruits towards the ending. Smooth in the mouth. Quite alright (10.07.2019).

500ml bottle from Cambridge Wine Merchants - Kings Parade. Dark brown colour with reddish tinge, biege foam head leaving lacing and chocolatey malty roasty aroma. Taste is sweet roasty malt, chocolate, coffee, dark fruits, brown sugar, lactose and earthy bitterness. Smooth mouthfeel, medium bodied, soft carbonation, semi-dry roasty bitter finish with some residual sweetness. Nicely drinkable

BB 10.02.18, another one of the beers misplaced by Yodel. This one didn't survive: huge metallic off flavors, combined with a hardcore bitterness. Really unpleasant, won't finish. No rating.
