Tap at Gar Eden. Dark red/brown with small golden creamy head. Aroma is pine, citrus hops, bit of roastiness, chocolate creamy. Taste is very nice, chicolate, lots of bitterness, grassy, citrus, herbal, coffee element, boozy burn. Really good.

0.33l bottle. Malty and hopy aroma, caramel, resin, citrus fruit, light chocolate, extra light coffee notes. Hazy copper color, thick beige head. Malty and hopy taste, resin, caramel, light citrus fruit, light chocolate, extra light coffee notes, light sweet, medium bitter. Medium to full body, oily texture, soft carbonation and malty and hopy finish with caramel and resin notes. More like some hybrid between Amber Ale and Brown Ale than CDA, but good.

330ml bottle. Pours red brown, which is odd given the description. Orange pith, lemon, touch of biscuit. Pretty tasty, but dark ale is pretty misleading.

Cloudy amber, huge rocky head. Stays. Big mango and passion fruit on nose. Additional lemon. A hint of yeast. Medium body. Hoppy dry taste. Juicy. Yet not really bitter. Pleasant yeast. Very good. I don’t mind it doesn’t fit the style at all.
