Bottle. Beer looks more like a marzen beer than a stout. Not much head. Aroma is chocolate and raspberry. Taste is raspberry and chocolate with a very sweet finish.

Bottle. A- White chocolate, raspberry. A- Orange pink color, clear liquid, white head. T- Raspberry, white chocolate. P- Medium body, average texture, average carbonation, complex finish. O- Definitely get every bit of the white chocolate and the raspberry. I mean this is sweet dessert goodness. Even get a bit of cookie/muffin like bready flavor to compliment. Good stuff. My mom loved this and she hates every beer I've ever made her try so that's a positive sign. Doesn't taste a bit of the 10% it is. I am shocked they call this a stout though. Me think it would be a Imperial blonde if I didn't know any better.

Bottle from the Packie served at room temp. Pink red in color with a huge amount of carbonation and head. Initial nose is cough syrup fruitiness. Flavor is kind of the same. Bits of white chocolate with a syrupy fruit that feels artificial. Light coffee, alcohol and little else. Interesting but I couldn't drink more than one.
Reddish pink pour. Thin foam. Smells like chocolate covered cherry cordials. Taste is cherry with a nice white chocolate flavor. Nice fruit to chocolate ratio.
