3.42/5  rDev -7.1%
look: 4.25 | smell: 4 | taste: 3.25 | feel: 2.5 | overall: 3.25
A 500ml waxed bottle (such a pain to open), with no clear bottled on or best before date. Poured into a snifter glass.

Appearance: Black in colour with a one finger tanned head that had pretty good retention and left some spotty lacing.

Aroma: Nutella, nuttiness, light chocolate milk and a hint of banana bread.

Taste: Chocolate milk, Nutella, vanilla and banana cream pie like sweetness, with only hints of hazelnuts in the background.

Mouthfeel: Creamy, light bodied with soft carbonation.

Overall: Body was so light (too light) that the whole time it seemed like I was drinking a 6% Stout instead on an Imperial Stout. It also lacked roastiness to balance some of the sweet, and even though this is a Pastry Stout, it just lacked balance without any roast. Lastly, the hazelnut was unfortunately just hidden in the background and not really found in the flavours.
