On tap @ BrewDog, Soho. It's a more or less black one this. Impossible to see anything through it, and on the top it has a nice lacing beige head. It smells really roasty toasty and almost a little dry. Burnt toast, rye bread and a little bit of stale coffee. Not bad. It tastes quite a lot sweeter this. It has to be a lactose infused one. It sure tastes like it. Mild oily in the mouth and it's just above average on the carbonation. Sweet chocolate, a little coffee. Quite dry roasted that helps balancing the sweetness. No coconut, no vanilla, but as a sweet stout it's not bad at all. 21.08.2016

Keg at BD Shepβs Boosh. It pours jet black with a medium light tan head. The aroma is rich roasted malt, big coffee vibe, vanilla coffee, charred wood and toasted coconut. The taste is bitter - sweet, chocolate, roasted malt, creamy, vanilla, toasted coconut, dark fruits, light spice and tangy fruits with a dry, toasty finish. Medium body and moderate carbonation. Pretty good fun. Decent balance.
