0.33l can, courtesy of and shared with Jonas who got it at the Higgins Tap Room. Thaaanks! Slightly hazy golden body, lasting ivory head, thick. Interesting aroma, citric candy, herbal notes, resin and wormwood, some floral touches and maltiness, bit uneven. Lean, dry taste, citrus candy drops ending towards a herbal bitterness, lightly earthy-resinous. I mean, it's pretty much what it is, fine bitterness, lightly restrained but big enough not to complain. Simple, works!

Tap at Higgins with Jonas and Ursula. Blackish body, tan head, thick, relatively small. Some cocoa and black malt in the aroma, dry, okay, very lean. Lean, creamy, soft, chocolatey taste, dry, bitterish, good balance overall, drier than expected though, subtle, bit herbal. Pretty good! --- Beer merged from original tick of Higgins Truly Chocolate Stout on 04 Jan 2024 at 18:39 - Score: Appearance - 8 | Aroma - 6 | Flavor - 7 | Texture - 8 | Overall - 7.5.

Tap at the tap room. Hazy reddish-amber body, off-white head. Creamy aroma, panettone vibes with some floral and dried fruit notes. Creamy taste, full, caramelly, fruity, tropical, vaguely herbal, trace rubber and onion, very well hidden alcohol. Pleasant!

Tap at the brewpub. Hazy orange-golden body, off-white head. Bit earthy, resinous, tropical aroma. Bit socky sweet citrus-tropical smooth, lightly caramelly taste. Okay, maybe not the freshest.

Tap at Higgins, thx Ursula! Clear golden vody, white head. Bit oddly yeasty, cheesy aroma. Light soft clean taste, sweetish citric, mild, light bitterish touches. Sorry, can't get over the aroma. --- Beer merged from original tick of Higgins Golding Blonde Ale on 04 Jan 2024 at 17:58 - Score: Appearance - 8 | Aroma - 4 | Flavor - 6 | Texture - 8 | Overall - 6.5.
