16/12/2024. Crowler from Beerdome online store. Label says 15.0% abv. Pours thick and black with the darkest frothy coffee coloured head. Aroma is sweet, coffee, leche flan, chocolate, caramel, dark malts, vanilla, slight nutty edge. Quite sweet, by design, but not overpowering, nicely balanced with roasted bitterness. Super thick body, ultra smooth, low carbonation. Sweetness doesn't oppress, has just a slight cloying edge. This is a ridiculously delicious beer.

Aroma is strawberry, coconut shell, milk chocolate, strawberry marshmallow, light roasted malt, vanilla, strawberry blancmange, hidden BA notes. Very sweet with mild roasted bitterness. Full bodied, thick and slick, light carbonation. Sweet, sickly, cloying finish. Too sweet to enjoy too much of.

Listening to an old recording of this in Harlem while drinking a Brazilian imperial IPA. Ordering Ivorian food from a couple blocks away. Not going to complain about this day at all.

(Draught at Stockholm Beer & Whisky Festival, 7 Sep 2024) Cloudy golden colour with frothy, white head. Fruity, hoppy nose with notes of citrus, tropical fruit and peaches. Fruity, hoppy taste with citrus, tropical fruit, pineapple, passionfruit, peaches, herbs, white bread and a balanced citric/herbal bitterness. More than medium body, with a certain sweetness. Fresh, hoppy and juicy. Very nice.
