Cask pour pint at Beardslee. God damn this is tasty. I don’t know why I’m a little surprised. I expected an overly sweet, too heavily candied stout, but everything seemed to go just right here. Dense black pour with a dark brown cream foam head. I don’t think I’ve ever had a beer with this much chocolate. Ten times more than their chocolate filled Porter. If this beer had any more chocolate in it, it would simply be chocolate. With a cool peppermint of course. This beer is exactly what they say it is, only executed perfectly. Underneath the creamy milk chocolate and peppermint, their is soft tones of toast malts, and coffee beans. Soft vanilla note to only make it better. This seems sweet looking back on it, but doesn’t bother in any way. Ordering another pint of this. This is likely the best dessert like beer I’ve ever had. Please bring this back, so people I know can remind me that I’m crazy.
