From the 12 oz bottle in a snifter via Bluejacket74! Cheers Dude!
This solid little pastry pours a muddled blackish brown with a moderate
head of khaki foam that settles to a thick ring, thin dusty layer, and sports some
light lacing. Nose of rich caramel, wafer cookie (literally), dark chocolate, and
subtle char. Flavors present a fine representation of caramel, chocolate, and
cookie bar dashed with coffee and moderate char. Mouth feel is full, smooth,
rich, very coating, moderately warming, medium light carbonation, and a
bitter chocolate and rich caramel finish that is subtly dry.
Overall, a solid pastry.
Cheers

This beer is very Choklat inspired having a nice sweet chocolate backbone. Good cookie butter flavor and a nice bit of caramel sweetness to round it all together. Obviously it's a novelty beer so it is aggressively sweet but also thankfully not very hoppy and the ABV is very well concealed. Personally, I'm really digging it. I could probably have an occasional pint but probably only one is sitting. Worth picking up if you love sweet stouts!

For a dark brown with a small tan head. Nose is straight up cookie batter. Sweet and thick smelling at the same time. definitely taste like a cookie. Sweet.

Pours mahogany brown and settles black in the glass with a creamy tan head that lingers a bit and provides moderate lacing.
The nose is really sweet, with caramel and milk chocolate notes that are STRONG, and that’s where the taste lands.
The mouthfeel is full and creamy, fitting the beer and style. If you like sweet stouts, this is your jam.

Purchased at Liquor World, Louisville, KY. $16.99/4pk 12oz bottles
Pours a deep black color. Little to no head on the initial pour.
Aromas of sweet chocolate.
A very sweet stout that follows the name. Flavors of sweet chocolate, toffee, vanilla combine for a dessert-style beer. The ABV is hidden by the sweetness.
Creamy consistency, mild carbonation.
Overall, a beer that is OK but not one I'd revisit. A bit too sweet and maybe leans towards an artificial flavor profile. Not bad but not a top tier stout...cheers!

12 ounce bottle, best by 03/05/26 stamped on the label. Served in a snifter, the beer pours dark brown/black with about a half inch or so tan head. Head retention and lacing are both decent enough. Caramel stands out in the aroma, and there's also some cookie bar, vanilla, cream and chocolate. For the most part the taste is similar to the aroma, but there's also the addition of some dark breadiness and also an earthy bitter flavor that comes out more as the beer warms. Definitely reminds me of a Twix bar! Sweeter tasting for sure. Mouthfeel/body is medium, it's a bit coating and smooth with a moderate amount of carbonation. Overall I liked this, worth a try if you come across some!
