440ml can. Jet black colour with slightly late awakening, huge, super dense, creamy, moderately to mostly lasting, moderately lacing, dark beige to tan head that initially settles in layers of different density, which later assimilate before they very slowly show signs of "osteoporosis" (i.e. very small, neighbouring bubbles combine to bigger ones while the height of the head remains unchanged). Sweet-ish, chocolately, dark malty and spicy aroma, notes of cinnamon, cocoa, chocolate, some coffee, vanilla, chocolate cookies, brown sugar. Taste is roasty, slightly chocolately, dark malty and spicy, notes of cocoa, cinnamon, some coffee, vanilla, brown sugar, some roasty, coffee bitterness.
Creamy texture, smooth and soft, minimally cloying palate, medium to fine, very dense, creamy carbonation.
Very nice, harmonious composition, well crafted, homogeneous, balanced, seemingly light and dangerously drinkable, superb quality of adjuncts - great!

CBHWS2025 (could have been a can too). Black colour with a small brown head. Aroma is coffee, vanilla, burnt sugar, rum, some wood and mild cinnamon tones to it. Flavour is vanilla, coffee, rum, some wood, chocolate, cinnamon and mild liquorice to it. Coffee stays for a good while in the finish.

Keg draught at Junkyard, Nottingham. A good dark brown, barely translucent with a small khaki head. Aroma is overwhelmingly cinnamon with notes of coffee beans, coconut milk and and rum. Big savoury cinnamon stock in the taste. It's sweet and creamy with a light dry bitterness near the finish. Wow. Lots going on here. A spicy umami near the finish with more dry cinnamon in the aftertaste. Medium body and carbonation. One he'll of a beer.

440ml. Opaque colour, medium-sized brownish head. Roasted malts, coffee and cinnamon in the nose. Medium-bodied. Toasted malts, coffee and cinnamon in the flavour. Semi-sweet, not overall really a pastry stout. A bit perfumic. Ok.

440ml can. Pours almost black with a small tan head. Aroma of coffee, cinnamon, vanilla, brown sugar. Taste of coffee, roast malts, dark chocolate, vanilla, cinnamon, brown sugar, bittersweet. Light-medium bodied. Flavours seem well balanced, cinnamon doesn't overpower though it is prominent. Body lets this one down, so light for its strength.
