Bottle sample at a tasting at Alexey & Raphaela’s place. Thanks Stas & Max. Black with a tan head. Nice aroma of chocolate, cocoa, roast, a bit of fruitiness. Bittersweet flavor, a bit sourish, roasty, with chocolate, some fruitiness, and a short bitterish finish. Light to medium-bodied, well-carbonated. Decent.

Draft @ Fiera della Birra di Ferrara, Nov 2013. Brun foncée, col crémeux café au lait. Arôme est malté, grillé léger en café avec une influence stout rappelant les stouts anglais. Palais subtile mariage des malts entre cara-pâle et grillé café restant assez modéré, le tout accompagné d’un léger profil grains. Biscuité se distingue en retrait avec un fini amer houblonné subtil. L’influence anglaise est évidente et le tout reste bien agréable.

Bottle from the brewery
Dark brown color; no head; almost no carbonation. Yeast aroma. Solid body, caramel and roasted malt flavor, Porter-like, correct bitterness, but also the unmistakeable homebrew style.
