Bottle sample at a tasting at kerenmk’s place. Thanks Tom L. Black with a small tan head. Aroma of roastiness with mild hoppy notes. Bittersweet flavor, roasty, with coffee, cocoa and a bitter hoppy finish. Medium-bodied. Decent.

330ml bottle [4.3% abv]. Ruby red glowing, quasi black colour with average, thick, frothy, fairly lasting, moderately lacing, tan head. Roasty dark malty aroma with notes of coffee, dark chocolate, a nuttily touch. Taste has minimally tart and minimally bitter, citrusy and grassy hoppy overtones, dry, roasty dark malty background, a nuttily touch. Nice hoppy Stout with resemblance to a Black IPA.

33cl bottle. Pours near black with a dark brown head. Lots of chocolate, cocoa at first, some roastedness and maybe some oatmeal. Inviting aroma really. Taste then, quite similar with chocolate being most evident, espresso notes as it warms up a little. Roasted and dry finish. Can’t really detect the Citra here, but you sure know it is well hopped. For this abv, this is quite marvellous. Thumbs up!
