Another nice Pasty Stout by Abomination Brewing. There is vanilla as well as chocolate covered cherries with a nice but hidden booze kick. Obviously sweet and thick.

Excellent head production, but poor retention.
Aroma is decadent and inviting, but the berries cut through the richness of the stout base, chocolate, and vanilla frosting to give it some balance. Notes of berries, cherry, toffee, espresso, chocolate, burnt toast.
A bit sharply sour up front, expected, with the blueberries really leading the way. On the back half, the cherries are more prominent, along with a kiss of strawberry. This is, however, a rich and thick stout, with notes of espresso, molasses, brown sugar, toffee, caramel, chocolate, walnut, and toast. The vanilla frosting really emerges mid-sip, lasting through most of the back third, after the sharpness of the berries has moved a bit out of the way.
Really a decadent and enjoyable sip, layered with so many different flavors, all of which seem to work very well together.
Super thick and creamy mouthfeel, although there is a light crunch from some particulate out of suspension - nothing bad, but it is noticeable. I suspect this comes from using whole berries (instead of a puree), although I can't be certain.
