5/VII/25 - on tap, shared @ Laval taproom (Avigliani, IT), BB: n/a (2025-625)

Clear dark brown to black beer, creamy dense beige head, stable, non adhesive. Aroma: oh boy, lots and lots of diacetyl, way too much, this is not good, also some caramel, mocha, butter scotch, meh. MF: soft to no carbon, medium body. Taste: good roast, some alcohol, gentle bitterness, some gingerbread notes, alcohol is not very noticeable, some dark chocolate, a soft acidity, earthy. Aftertaste: rather watery and thin, some alcohol coming through now, good roast on top of some butter scotch thanks to the diacetyl, caramel notes, a little sweet.
