Draft at the Ironic Taphouse in Bucharest. Birthday cake aroma and lots of tonka. Vanilla. Sweeeet in a big way and somewhat cloying. Lingering cinnamon and vanilla syrup. An accumulation of additives. Drinkable.

Sampled at Borefts Beer Festival 2019, day 1. Opaque dark brown to black color, average sized light brown colored head. Smell and taste both have heavy tonka bean influence, hardly anything you can taste, malts and some roastiness yes but the tonka dominates. Too much for me.
