Nicely balanced. Sweet, treacle aftertaste. Very nice

Mineralno zbozowo kawowy aromat, sporo lakto-kawo-czeko. Smaczny, pijalny, slodki, lekki. Za lekki w sumie. Ale najs. 3.3. B05

Opaque dark brown beer, a few dark tan bubbles. Palate is light, fairly dry and mildly dry. Modest carbonation. Smooth and mellow dark malts, trace of milky sweetness. Good chocolate, if a little artificial tasting - dark chocolate, milk chocolate and cocoa powder. Modest dark fruits. Smooth finish. Not normally my thing but this one charms.

Bottle 33 cl. Pours black with a warm burgundy glow and a small, rough, off-white head. Nose has intense, sweet licorice. Body is rich, very low in co2 and extremely sweet. More cocoa powder than roastiness, actually excessively sweet making it a little hard to drink. 101016

Bottle from Oddbins. Appearance - opaque black with a very gentle carbonation. So much so that there is no head at all. Nose - sweet creamy chocolate and sweet malt at the back. Taste - loads more of the same. A light touch of vanilla if you look for it. Palate - close to medium bodied with a creamy texture and a fairly balanced finish. A bit more carbonation would’ve improved it though. Overall - nice but under carbonated.
