Thanks Dwayne!
Can poured into a snifter.
Appearance: dark brown color with a small cap of a little white semi-foamy head which dissipated and barely left any lace
Aroma: smells pretty spot on to be German chocolate cake - the coconut, the pecans and the Baker's chocolate meshing in very nice and sweet, subtle roasty tones underneath
Flavor: once again - the German chocolate cake - sweet and nutty; mild aftertaste of the chocolate and coconut
Texture: between light and medium bodied, between being a sipper and somewhat sessionable; finishes with the chocolate and coconut
Overall: nicely done pastry stout being a German chocolate cake stout in which I believe this brewery did!
