Aromas of roasted chocolate, espresso, toast, treacle and a hint of anise invite the drinker into the first sip. Luscious, pitch black and creamy are the obvious first impressions regarding this beer's apperance. The creaminess and semi-sweetness are derived from the lactose but they fall short of a typical sweet stout sweetness, but where this sweet stout excels is in its drinkability. Enjoy the rich dark malt flavors of this Sweet Stout without harsh dark malt astringency and without being too full on the palate.
