Double Chocolate Stout Brewed With Cocoa, Artificial Marshmallow Creme and Vanilla Powder

You’ve made your family disappear, time to pop in Angels with Filthy Souls, throw on a napkin bib, and pour yourself a ginormous mug of Junk and Rubbish, our cool, cool cocoa and marshmallow stout. Cocoa, vanilla and marshmallow are paired with sweet, toasted maltiness for a rich, creamy, full mouthfeel—reminiscent of hot cocoas and overflowing sundaes. Topping it with excessive amounts of marshmallows, candy, chocolate syrup is also, um, a choice you could make?

Can. Chocolate aroma with notes of roasted malt, marshmallow and vanilla. Pours deep brown with a half a finger of mocha brown head that has excellent retention and lacing. Starts with chocolate and vanilla flavors as well as having a rich, full body and silky smooth mouthfeel. Finishes smooth with roasted malt and marshmallow flavors. Very nice.

Can from a Short's holiday variety pack at Jewel/Osco. The pour shows some cloudiness amid the black. In the glass, it kicks up a thick head of foam, not quite like a Guinness cascade. A light cocoa nose. And I think I do get a small whiff of marshmallow. Taste has more malt roastiness than its smell suggests, but no harshness. A pretty nice overall impression. There is a note of alcohol coming in. Turns out better than the other Short's beers in this holiday pack.
