Can. A black beer with a dark brown head. The aroma has notes of chocolate, roasted malt, and prunes. The flavor is sweet with notes of chocolate, fudge, caramel, and roasted malt, leading to a bitter finish.

Can shared thanks to sjogro. Black with small short lasting dark beige head, leaves no trace. Vanilla, sweet malts, icecream, weird chocolate pudding, marshmallows indeed, hazelnuts, creamy, pecans, amaretto. Quite sweet and medium bitter. Almost full bodied with oily feel and low carbonation. Quite decent, but it’s just a load of chemical aromas. Not for everyday.

Can picked up from Trafalgar Wines, Brighton, consumed at home Friday 26th January 2018 at Chapel Lane, campsite, Wythall, nr Birmingham in company of Isobel. Pours black with a mid sized cappuccino coloured head. Smell is honey, treacle, toffee, with a little sweet liquorice. This has everything and the kitchen sink thrown at it, however it's great. Lots of marshmallow, ice cream, loads of chocolate, coconut, wonderful. A8 A4 T9 P4 Ov17 4.2

Draught at 'Cause Beer Loves Food (sold there as "Dessert in a Keg" but must be the same beer). My first from this Norwegian craft brewer. Irregularly lacing, mocha-coloured, creamy, stable head, ink black colour. Aroma of toasted marshmallows indeed, Wiener Sachertorte, molten 'fondant' chocolate, mocha ice cream, caramel sauce, chestnuts, chocolate cake, candied dates, hazelnuts, pipe tobacco. Sweet onset as expected, candied dates galore, lots of hazelnut paste, soft carbo, thick and very creamy body; thick butternut- and chocolate-like middle, marshmallow effect, with hazelnut cream-like flavours lingering beyond a balancing dosis of late but effective spicy hop bitterness, accentuated by warming, rum-ish alcohol. Decadent liquid dessert as intended, of the 'pastry stout' style heralded by Omnipollo, but less extreme, seeking and finding balance by roasty qualities and hop bitterness - so in that sense closer to more 'traditional' (yet American style) imperial stout. Some of these hip pastry stouts are too much for many (though I personally don't have any trouble emptying them) and this more moderate example can provide a good alternative for that - in terms of flavour balance, I'd dare to call this a stroke of genius when you look at it like that. Beautiful dessert beer.
