Bottled. Black colour with a mediumsized beige head. Aroma is bitter coffee, roasted malts with some mild fruity tones. Flavour is coffee, some roasted malts, floral, fruity and some lemongrassy notes. Different, but actually a nice CDA, which blends together elements I usually don't like being together.
