Musta olut beigellä, kohtalaisella ja runsaasti pitsiä jättävällä vaahdolla. Tuoksussa paahteista maltaisuutta, suklaata ja kahvia. Myös maku paahteisen maltainen ja kahvinen sekä jälkipuoleltaan suolaisen salmiakkinen. Keskitäyteläinen suutuntuma. Jälkimaku säilyy suussa kohtalaisen pitkään. Ihan hyvä tuotos, mutta hieman enemmän tässä saisi olla syvyyttä.

Casi negra, con buena espuma ligeramente beige. Mucho aroma, a café y malta tostada. En boca muy sabrosa, con toques de vainilla, café y especias. Con adecuada carbonatacion y final con mezcla de dulce y amargo. Notable.

Bottled 500ml. -Courtesy of kajser27, shared with him and Marko. Black coloured, small brownish head, light roasty nose. Roasted malt, chocolate, hint of ginger and subdued alcohol with mild presence of licorice in the finish. Pleasant one.

Thanks to kajser who brought it from Russia! Blackish body, brownish head. Aroma... chocolate/cocoa with some vague, but definitely present ginger on a malty base, quite nice. Taste... more of the chocolate/ginger interplay, slightly roasty, slightly minty, light in body, a tad too light for me but still a tasty beer!

Bottle from my Secret Santa, thank you McTapps! Aroma dark roasted coffeeish malts with a hint of sourness, generous grassy English hops. Clear very dark colour, stable brown head. Taste is rich with malts, dark roasted, chocolate and coffee, but also toffee. Hops is present, but does not disturb, traditional English flavours, grassy, kind of Fuggley. I might even detect the ginger, but without the commercial description I would describe it as minty, fresh flavour. Long roasty finish. Very good.
