Tap at FOB, Rimini, Italy. Pours dark brown, with coffee foam, very fine. Aroma is licorice stick or bitter licorice, almost recalling seafood too. Body is smooth, creamy, still of average density and carbonation. Taste is vaguely sour, moderately sweet. Final is average.

Pitch black, tall frothy tan head, good retention, heavy lacing. Fruity aroma, black currants, blue grapes, cocoa, coffee. Flavour medium sweet, light sour and slightly bitter, malty, blackcurrant, cherries, raisins, light chocolate. Aftertaste as in taste, some woody and earthy notes. Medium body, watery to oily texture, soft carbonation, complex, combination of fruit beer and (chocolate) porter, bit weird but well-balanced, nice.

Black with dark creamy head. Aroma and flavour have plenty of sweet and sour juicy blackcurrants. Subtle coffee bitterness too. Complex.

Donkerbruin bier met schuim. Smaak is tamelijk zuur en fruitig met iets van chocolade en karamel. Niet echt mijn bier.
