16 oz. can. Aroma is chocolate malt and barley. Perhaps a chocolate doughnut hint. In the flavor there is a chocolate doughnut like character. I will say the strawberry is real mild. The body is real lean. The other stout in the series ( Dark Chocolate Toasted Coconut) was much better. Was left wanting more pop.

5 oz. draft. Aroma is Coco and Nila wafer. Body and carbonation is correct. Sugar is but not cloying. Exactly as expected. Solid.

Can from Holiday Market. Pours a deep brown to black with a finger of beige head that dissipates. Lots of waffle cone on the nose, milk chocolate and vanilla as well. Peanut is there, but fades as it warms. Choco Taco notes in full effect though. Not overly sweet or pastry-like. Nice light bitterness and roasted malt notes on the finish. Very solid.

Can (11/5/20) pour from trade with AirForceHops--thanks, Chris! An opaque black with nice sparkle at the edges of the glass, finger-width, tight, light brown foamy head with fair retention and trace lacing. Aroma is lightly roasted malts and coffee, chocolate and caramel, as described. Taste is stronger than aroma with a pronounced lactose sweetness. Mouthfeel is full bodied with thick texture, average-to-lively carbonation and crisp finish as taste with light lingering bitterness. Overall, some good qualities but the lactose produces a sweetness that blasts the subtleties of all the other flavors. Over carbonated. Just OK.

Hoppy orange juice with a grapefruit twist. Fantastic. Paired excellently with breakfast. Thanks Nosferatu bill l. !

4 oz taster. Aroma is soft coconut, chocolate. The flavor is mildly like a coconut donut. Good body and thicker texture. Has bitter chocolate for balance.

Aromas of stone fruit, pine and pineapple. It has a really nice body with some surprising chocolate and malt biscuit that really takes the beer to another level. I could drink it all night.

Can from Jeff, thanks for the hookup. Hazy lemon yellow with a huge frothy white head that slowly recedes. Lemony citrus and apricot with hints of earthy grass and pine.

hazy golden color. Piney citrus mango nose with some orange gummy bears. Dry alcohol well hidden. Medium body. Modestly bitter. Too dry for the style and lacking dank and juiciness. There is some alcohol at the end. Not bad
