Can at Beerdello courtesy of Hrabren, shared with Edi and him. Pitch black body, off-white head. Creamy aroma, raisins, light alcohol, bit of coffee, the barrel's there, but not extreme. The taste is intensive, creamy - cocoa, caramel, heavy roast, some coconut from the barrel, all heading into a lasting alcohol-driven finish, with a heap of roast & hop bitterness. It's a bit too rough for my tastes, maybe still a bit "young", with Ogi on this one.

0.5 l can shared with Marko and EDI at Gogo's Beerdello, Zagreb. Black, small beige head. Aroma is roasty, chocolate, hints of oak and bourbon. A note of dried fruits raisins, prunes, dates, molasses, brown sugar. Strong, smooth, sticky, full body. Roasty, burnt, dark chocolate, licorice flavour. Also hints of carob, dark caramel, burnt toast and smoke. Medium body, soft texture, dry roasty finish. Soft warmth.

On tap at SIP Zagreb. Pitch black coloured, small brown head that went away fast, roasty and chocolate in the nose. Roasted malt, dark chocolate, wood and light vanilla with notes of alcohol. Bit boozy and too much oily.
