1pint 6oz (650ml) Bottle from the brewery.
Pours pitch black with a thin brown head.
Aroma is dominated by dark chocolate, vanilla and a hint of bourbon.
Taste is quite similar, sweet and slight bitterness in the finish.
Mouthfeel is amazingly silky and creamy.
Would buy it again if I had the chance.
