Aroma: Mild roasted grain aroma, sometimes with coffee and/or chocolate notes. An impression of cream-like sweetness
often exists. Fruitiness can be low to moderately high. Diacetyl low to none. Hop aroma low to none.
Appearance: Very dark brown to black in color. Can be opaque (if not, it should be clear). Creamy tan to brown head.
Flavor: Dark roasted grains and malts dominate the flavor as in dry stout, and provide coffee and/or chocolate flavors.
Hop bitterness is moderate (lower than in dry stout). Medium to high sweetness (often from the addition of lactose)
provides a counterpoint to the roasted character and hop bitterness, and lasts into the finish. Low to moderate fruity
esters. Diacetyl low to none. The balance between dark grains/malts and sweetness can vary, from quite sweet to
moderately dry and somewhat roasty.
Mouth feel: Medium-full to full-bodied and creamy. Low to moderate carbonation. High residual sweetness from
unfermented sugars enhances the full-tasting mouthfeel.
Overall Impression: A very dark, sweet, full-bodied, slightly roasty ale. Often tastes like sweetened espresso.
