2024 Edition, 33 cl bottle poured lightly chilled into a snifter in Toulouse, France.
Pours xlnt, a full middle finger of spongy foam floats on deep black brew.
Nose carries a sour fruits funk that scared me initially. It mellowed as the beer warmed.
Taste is layers of wow. Comes in bold with chocolate covered cherry, rides on the tongue with mouthwatering hoppiness, marzipan adds texture and nuttiness, which brings the French oak barrel forward. The hit exits with perfect warmth and finishes with a lingering chewy raspberry note.
Mouth is full, yet glides light. Medium carbonation.
Overall, a classy and sensational dessert Stout rich with flavor layers and depth.

Surprisingly thick brown head
Very sour smell
The feel is thick, almost syrupy
Tastes less sour than it smells. Still just a little tart though. The cherry comes through strong, almost overpowering the roast flavours, though they marry well. I find the high abv is well hidden.

This one is a big one. A 14% beast. Imperial stout brewed with pâte d'amande and cherries then aged in oak barrels with raspberries.
Nice balance for this dessert stout. The barrel aging round the whole thing up. The fruitiness is nice and brings a bit of tartness which contributes to make disappear the very high abv. It remains quite a sipper with hints of booze. Cocoa, coffee and vanilla notes are noted. Some dark fruits are present too.
Nice complexity for a big beer which remains quite drinkable
