Pours a dark chocolatey colour with a mocha head, very dense with slight pock-marking bubbles appearing on the surface. Sinks after a while. Leave a slight lacing film. Overall looks slightly watery for a stout. Quivers with the movement of me writing this review.

Delicious nose, very sweet and creamy with a latte kind of character. Hints of currants, nutmeg and Irish cream. Not much roastedness at all, which surprises me. I would expect it from a stout, but at the same time I personally am not too disappointed.

Tastes more like a typical stout and less like the nose. Sour, roasted coffee flavour but not burnt and with a slightly sour, currant kind of taste. The finish is a lingering, cloying lump of dark matter which is funny really, because apart from the sour cherry/currant aspect, the body palate is very lightweight and watery. Mouthfeel is very thin and there's very little mid-palate, apart from a carryover of the front sour coffee bean flavour. A little disappointing in the end, but still quite drinkable. Needs a bit more malt, is all I'd say.
