Draught Very good dense & fine yellow-cream head over fully hazy ruby-brown beer. Woody, green leaves and even spruce aromas; fresh (dark) malt, melanoidins; faint meaty-yeasty esters. Nose hints at outstanding balance bitter-sweet. Faintly smokey, woody, hints at chocolate malt. Very restrained sweetness, but warming up, soft marzipan notes and crème de marrons. Surprisingly light body for announced ABV ànd colour - medium bodied at best. Bit oily, buttery MF. Easily drinkable for its ABV, appealing beer, inviting a second one.
