Opaque deep brown to black. Moderate beige head. Average lacing. Aroma: dark malts, coffee, cocoa. Light to medium body. Roasty taste. Additional coffee. Medium dry. Light citric & herbal bitterness. Well done. Still not my taste to be honest.

Bottle on train. Pours black with a solid dirty tan head that sticks around. Aroma is coffee, chocolate, vanilla, soy and a little marmite. Taste is a chocolate and coffee bomb with sweet vanilla finish and a little boozy burn. Really easy drinking. Lovely stuff

0.33 l bottle from ’Etre Gourmet’, bottled in August 2016. Black with a medium large, frothy, slowly diminishing, light brown head. Sweetish, malty, just slightly roasty aroma of coffee, milk chocolate, vanilla and hazelnut. Rather sweet, malty, slightly roasty taste of coffee, milk chocolate, hazelnut and lots of vanilla, followed by a medium long, moderately roasty-bitter, a bit dry finish. Medium body, almost creamy mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Tasty, very well-balanced as well, even if the coffee and the vanilla are easily noticeable.
