Pitch black! Mid-sized, frothy, lightly-tanned head. Partially lasting.
The nose is of rich English chocolate with a touch of cinnamon, vanilla and maple syrup.
Perfect!
Well-balanced with loads of vanilla and milk chocolate in the flavor. Acetic and lightly bitter with dark roasted coffee notes as well.
Full-bodied with a very creamy mouthfeel and fizzy carbonation. Lengthy, burnt/roasted finish. Perfect balance remains until the very end! A world-class Stout! Underrated! ThomasE (5178), Copenhagen, Denmark
