Shared with the boys at BBT 11/2021. Med-thin body, med-high carbonation. High bitterness, with a slightly harsh vegetal edge, but not too sharp. Malt in the background, fully hoppy. Dank Mosaic character is big here, otherwise slightly zesty, grassy. Easy drinking, good one.

AROMA: medium roasted aroma with dark chocolate notes. medium-low to low sweet background as well as some nuttiness. no hops detected. APPEARANCE: very dark brown body with ruby highlights. opaque. medium-low light brown head, creamy, with no retention. TASTE: initial medium roasted/sweet flavor with a chocolate impression and cream. slight fruitiness. medium bitterness with an almost dry and roasty finish. balanced. MOUTHFEEL: medium body with medium-low carbonation. OVERALL: a nice starting point for a sweet stout that needs to improve head retention and body.
