Draught at the brewpub.
Dark brown body, with a big, creamy, lacing, light beige head.
Aroma of cocoa, brown sugar, yeast, some toast, some dark fruits.
Tastes quite similar, with more chocolate, cocoa powder, some coffee.
Medium, oily mouthfeel, with a lively carbonation.
Finishes smooth, a bit dry, moderate roadty, a bit sweet, with cocoa, some toast, some yeast.

Very nice. Smooth and full, with lovely cocoa and chocolate notes. Greatly balanced, with the right levels of sweetness, roastiness and some dryness. Great, characterful style example.
