Very strange mild aroma for such a beer. Flavor however is ok, lightly acidic Porter flavor. Good roast notes.

Bottle from my Secret Santa package. Pours dark brown, almost black actually with dense beige head that remains for a short while. Nose has lots of dark dusty chocolate, not sweet but chocolaty. Roasted coffee malts down there also. Taste has roast, dark and medium bitter chocolate, quite smooth and feels dry-bodied. Roast cocoa and dark chocolate lingering until the end. Smooth and drinkable, feels lower ABV than it actually is.
