275ml bottle, in a small bar in Priness Town in Trinidad. Pours thick dark black with nice tan head and long lasting lacing. Sweet lightly toasted malt and candy aroma. Flavor is sweet malt and buttery candy sugar, some fruit and slight chocolate; very slight bitter. Nice sweet aftertaste.

A: Pours very dark black, as black as black can be. A nice but small silky khaki head rises up only to die down in an instant. No lacing noted. S: Nice and light aroma. Light coffee and sugary caramel is all I could really pick out. T: Actually pretty light. I was expecting an extreme sweetness but it was not there. I actually thought the beer was sort of flat and low on taste. I tasted some sweetness, but my experience was mostly blah. M: Very light, very thin, and very smooth.

Bottle. Dark brown to black pour, tan head. Aroma is sweet - roasted chocolate. Taste is sweet, turning to bitter roast at the end. Some alcohol flavor at the end as well.

Nice and roasty but goes down smooth from the sweetness. Deep black with a nice brown head. Decent stuff.

Tasted maybe 150 times - as you can tell I love this beer. The best sweet stout you can buy. A milk stout within the sweet family. Great roasted flavors, pours dark black with a brown head. Sweet, with roasted malt flavors. Not at all bitter an a great finish

Tasted in Saint Lucia in the Caribbean. Dark and full bodied, background of nuts and malt. Not bad.
