Sampled at Billies, day 2. A bit cloudy golden color, average sized white head. Aroma is weird. Jam maybe. Odd. Flavor is off too. Very weird and indescribable. Yuk. 6-4-2-5-3

Black with a dark beige head. Medium to full body. Chocolate, sweet caramel, vanilla, and if I squint hard enough there is just a touch of red fruits. I guess it’s as advertised but it comes across as overly sweet, overly simplistic, and quite dull. Some will love it but I am an old curmudgeon.

Dark to black.
Aroma of chocolate and roasted malts
Flavor is sweet, roasted malts hint of sweet cherries, lots of dark chocolate, ends chocolate and roasted malty. Tastes like a soft fark chocolate cake with a few candized cherry pieces on top

Shared with my wife on a Saturday evening. Lovely sour: medium acidity balanced by a nice, gentle sweetness, intense raspberry which carries the beer, a little bit of chocolate that goes well with the raspberry and a gentle heat from the chili without any vegetable distraction. Well crafted and delicious.

Can from Three Hounds Beer Cafe & Bottle Shop. Nose is dark chocolate, hazelnut, raisin, caramel, toffee. Taste is an intensity sweet mix of the above. Boozy warming alcohol infusion.

Can, thanks Fin! Dark, no head. Coconut, tonka, cookie dough, coffee syrup, ice cream. Oh this is sweet. This one can't be solved by vanilla ice cream. I could imagine it as frozen little ice cubes, and then in my cold coffee.
Ooookay added vanilla ice cream. Now it is lavender clove beer. "Interesting."

Can from Eltham Wines. Nose is black cherries, vanilla, chocolate, dark berries, nuts. Taste is vanilla, black cherries, definitely some cocoa, chocolate, spot of cookie dough. A lot going on in here. Nice flavour combo. Rich sweet warming finish. Nice.
