malty sweet, fairly heavy and it does comes across as a wonderful but warm ice cream in your mouth.

Pours very dark brown, small, nearly no head. Scent is roasty, mild ashy, relatively light. Taste is fairly full. Roasty, mild ashy, bit bitterness. Mild sweetness, cocoa bitterness. Bit too arteficial. Tastes like chocolate ice cream indeed, not chocolate

Tap at Beergeek. Almost pitch black body, off white head. Chocolate, cocoa in the aroma, some light vaguely phenolic touches too. Dry taste, soft chocolate and cocoa notes, pleasant, but again that little off touch that ruins it a little for me. Okay overall, did't feel it was worth the price.

Bottle from Gedeelde Vreugde. Pours hazy dark brown with a lasting, small, foamy, beige head. Intense aroma of fresh chocolate sauce, dark toffee, vanilla custard, ice cream (stracciatella), pistachio, sugary mocha. Taste has sweet chocolate, toffee, sugared pistachio & peanut, touch of vanilla & ice cream, mocha note providing some bitterness. Slightly herbal hoppy in the end, lingering mix of dark & milk chocolate topped with nuts. Medium to full body, creamy texture, soft carbonation. Not the most complex of modern Brown Ales but it's utterly delicious!
