I got a can of this beer from a mixed Christmas 2021 holiday 12pck that I bought from my local meijer store. It poured an opaque dark with ecru head that is leaving some lace. The scent had faint dark chocolate and vanilla notes. The taste was nicely balanced and easy to drink with silky chocolate presence with subtle vanilla and Graham cracker flare. The mouthfeel was lighter in body with good carbonation. Overall it is a good beer.

A- Pours a dark brown murky coloration, with an initial brown colored head that is a finger and a half thick, before quickly settling into essentially nothingness. The lacing is also pretty much non existent. Overall this isn't much to look at but that's not what its all about

S- Well I would say that the aromas mimic what a chocolate cheesecake smell is.....cream cheese, chocolate, vanilla, lactose, icing sugar, some peanut butter nuances, even some rum & butter! Aside from the dessert like qualities, there are dry Earthy malts, toasty char, black coffee astringency and that's about it!

T- Sweet and inviting, the flavors follow suit to the aromas, with sweet cream cheese, vanilla truffle, milky chocolate, milk lactose, icing sugar, heavy cream, black coffee, graham crumb, cocoa, International Oreo coffee creamer (chocolatey), some caramel/toffee richness.....the finish lingers on the palate with dry roasted dark malts.....a nice dessert brew flavor wise!

M/O- Somewhat thin bodied and the carbonation is zesty, but I don't find this impedes anything relating to the enjoyment of this one. The alcohol is well hidden, and the drinkability factor is good in my opinion. It resembles what it sets out to be, a chocolate cheesecake, and I find it quite nice, and not in your face....it is sweet but not to the extent that it has been made out to be. Not my favorite from these guys, but it is definitely good!

Got this from the Duvel guy in Utrecht. Cheers!

From a 16oz can into a pint glass
IBU: 20
Best Before 14 June 2019
Ale with milk sugars and cocoa nibs

APPEARNCE: Clear brown pour yields a two finger, slightly thinner looking, foamy, light tan head with okay retention. Bistre brown body with no real carbonation evident. Head recedes to a splotchy wisp and ring leaving touches of lacing as it recedes. Ring remains but leaves no real lacing down the glass.

SMELL: Big nose of vanilla icing and cupcakes. Butterscotch and milk chocolate in there, with lots of sugary, vanilla icing. Bold for sure.

TASTE: Lots of vanilla icing, cupcakes, milk sugars and milk chocolate up front. Sugary sweet vanilla. More vanilla icing at the swallow, moving into a medium but lingering finish of cupcakes, vanilla icing, milk sugars and sweet chocolate flavors. Sweet and sugary.

PALATE: Medium body and carbonation. Creamy enough on the palate, goes down smooth and finishes a bit dry.

OVERALL: This is pretty fun. It’s certainly sweet and sugary flavored, but it’s pretty much as advertised. This is very much a chocolate cheesecake stout. This one has plenty of character and is well worth checking out if you like sweet, candy stouts like this. Cheers!

Pouring from a 16 oz. can into a Prairie tumbler glass, this beer pours out brown and forms in the glass much darker. It forms a perfect, creamy, dense, tightly packed, khaki colored crown that holds well. Leaves lacing throughout.

The nose brings layers of roasty and sweet malts. Lactose evident, some coffee presence, chocolate, cream, vanilla. Really smells like a cheesecake.

The taste comes in with cream, vanilla and chocolate. Slight coffee is still there as well. Really nice flavors that meld well, but could bring them with more pronunciation.

The mouthfeel is where this loses me a little. Creamy and smooth, but lacking depth in the body for my preferences, not really for the style per se however.

Overall, I wish the flavor brought the same pronunciation the nose did. Still enjoyable and would be a great session stout.

473 ml can served at cellar temperature into a pint glass. Beer 3 of 6 in the mixed pack.

Appearance - dark brown near black. Two fingers of fairly dense light tan head.moderate lacing and good staying power.

Smell - super sweet, lots of sugar, but there is plenty of chocolate and the unmistakeable nose of cheesecake too. Not sure how natural this is but surprisingly accurate.

Taste - fairly sweet, with some dark chocolate bitterness, lactose shows up here in giving a slightly funky cheesecake taste. Buttermilk and cream cheese are also prevalent.

Mouthfeel - smooth and slick but more watery than you'd figure based on the taste and especially the nose. Modest carbonation and flavor doesn't really cling to the tongue.

Overall - very cheesecakey aroma, chocolate doesn't show that strong, but for what the beer portends it to be, it executes quite well and deserves kudos for that. Not a beer I'd like to drink even semi regularly however it is well executed and works well in a limited time holiday pack. Not quite as good as the imperial stout but a worthy addition to the mixed pack.

Pours a brown color with a foamy tan head that lasts quite a while. Aromas of vanilla, chocolate and butterscotch. Taste is sweet with vanilla, sugar and chocolate up front. Creamy and smooth.
