Pours a dark brown colour with a rich head. Roasted, somewhat smoked aroma with notes of chocolate. Somewhat thin mouth feel. Flavour starts of quite roasted with notes of coffee but soon gets really hoppy with notes of shampoo. A bit unbalanced.

Bottle thanks to the newbrewthursday guys. Pours with a deep brown body and a tan head. Aromas of banana esters, smoke, chipotle, vanilla, fruit and caramel. Flavors are earthy and slightly vinous, fruity, caramel and smoke. Medium bubbles. Pretty tasty.

Bottle. This stout is hard to put on the map. Its kind of a mix between an american porter and a english stout. Elegantly creamy and well balanced, still kind of hoppy with some coffe beans bitterness aswell. Slightly smoked. KInd of thin for its 6,8ABV, but that also adds to its drinability.
