Side by side with the other variants. This one is Brad's favourite but apparently we have very different tastes!
Very little head. Smells minty and weird. A bit medicinal as a result. Very harsh and minty on the nose and tongue. Everything else is masked by this. Overall not very drinkable as a result. My least favourite of the variants. No real chocolate noticeable. Sorry Brad... not a fan!

On Tap at the bottle release.
A: Pours black with some whispy light brown lace. Looks very creamy for being such a still- low carbed stout.
S: The smell is comprised of dark bitter chocolate with some mint in the background. Seems to have the Aphrodite nuttiness in full effect along with a bit of spice.
T: The dark bitter chocolate and sharp tasting mint battle each other for attention. The flavors kind of muddle together and seem harsh at times. The base stout shows well but I wouldn't say the two additions to this really help. The mint lingers along with some dark roasted malt and a touch of bitterness.
M: Nice body and creamy mouthfeel next to it's OoA counterpart cousins.
O: This wasn't bad, it grew on me slightly as it warmed. Overall I was hoping for something a little more smooth and seamless from this variant. I would say this is my least favorite treatment out of the lot; it had some stiff competition though.
