0.75 l bottle from 'Mr. Hop', best before December 2028. Pitch black with a thin, frothy, slowly diminishing, light brown head. Sweetish-malty, quite roasty aroma of dark chocolate, coffee, licorice, caramel and some maple. Fairly sweet, malty, quite roasty-bitter taste of dark chocolate, licorice, coffee, roasted hazelnut, caramel, some vanilla and light maple, followed by a long, quite roasty-bitter finish. Almost full-bodied, slightly effervescent mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Tasty beer, quite roasty and bitter for a Pastry Stout, not too heavy on the adjuncts.
