A decent sipper. Everything you would get from a big pastry stout.On draft at the source. A bit of mouthfeel, a good amount of nuttiness over chocolate.

This is definitely one of their better brews. They really capture the chocolate macadamia nut combo without being overly sweet and the result is quite enjoyable.
Dark cola brown body with a very short lived khaki cream head. Looks a bit oily and with the adjuncts here it makes sense that only a few dots of lace are noted. The nose is all candy bar with a great milk chocolate and toasted macadamia presence. I get some dark bread there along with a soft earthiness and slight fruity esters. Flavors follow suit and are spot on as the name implies. Loads of milk chocalte and macadamia to this which is great. Moderate residual sweetness this one does not kill you with the sugars. Mouthfeel/texture really start to hurt this brew however. Overall watered down feel with a modearte to low bitterness. There is bounce to it here to make it enjoyable but I bet this would be much better on Nitro.
