Shared bottle with the RBESG guys in Red Ant on 8th July 2016. Poured dark brown with thin tanned coloured head. Aroma was of roasted/toasted malts, other grains and chocolate. Taste is along the same lines, add a coffee flavour into the mix. Fairly smooth and slick on the tongue: slipped down very nicely.

@Spanje, volgens mij uit de Winepalace Platja d’Aro, mooi etiket, schenkt zwart met kaki kraag, maar voordat ik het glas vol kon schenken kwam het vrolijk uit het flesje spuiten, iets met teveel co2, kan ook aan het vervoeren/openen liggen. aroma van gebrande mouten, chocolade en zoetigheid. heb het bier vrij koud ingeschonken, maar de karakteristieke kenmerken van een oatmeal/haver stout zit er qua smaak wel in, tevens melk chocolade, koffie/mocca, licht bessen zuurtje en wat laurier. géén typisch sterke stout maar deze is prima te drinken in het land der Cerveza’s ! --- Beer merged from original tick of Art Fosca Stout on 25 May 2018 at 13:42 - Score: 6

12oz bottle from a random farmers market in Barcelona pours a murky, deep brown with some creamy off white head. Nose has some milk chocolate, malt, mild toast, bread crust, a little caramel. Flavor is solid, although a bit sweet, caramel, some chocolate, some malt, a bit of molasses. Really needed a bit of bitter hop or bitter roast to balance.

Bottle from Barcelona. Dark opaque brown color, huge head, thanks for "Alvinne-style" gushing bottle. Ash and coffee liquer in the nose. Hints of vegetables. Light to medium bodied. Coffee, light vegetables, a bit inky, with light bitterness and alcohol. Average but not hopeless.
