Huge yellow-amber head, collapsing with very good lace; hazy chocolate-brown beer. Sourish tinge in the nose, very specific arom, reminding me of an Indian sauce - mint/yoghurt/cilandro? Definitely yoghurt. Cheese aperitive biscuits. Very sourish beer, lemony, buttermilk. Faint flavour of flaked milkchocolate. Lactic acid. Adstringent mouthfeel, dry-out. Not thin, seems like oatmeal-filled. I cannot quite believe this was meant to be as such. It’s not at all bad, but just too weird to be believed. Thanks for unique beer, Alex.

A deep red beer with a small disappearing beige head. The aroma is malty with hints of sourness. The flavor is primarily of roasted malt with a slight sour background. Maybe the not that high marks are due to the fact, that this was sampled bottled in Denmark, brought in by Alex (fiulijn) who had bottled it at the Brasserie. Thanks, Alex, for the hard work.

Draught; 2004-01-07, 6-5-8-5-15
Dark amber color. Light malt and roasted malt aroma. Excellent maltiness, sweet, velvety, smooth, with a good balance of roasted malt; delicate coffee. Caramel and nuts finish. Another good try!

Unfortunately has lost almost all the carbonation… The aroma is ordinary (malt and caramel), but stronger than the draught one. The taste is of a reasonable stout, not outstanding. The nutty, roasted final is still a good thing.
