Bottle, 0.50l, shared with Patrick on St. Patrick’s day. Aroma of roasted malt, coffee, vanilla, dried fruit and spirits. Pours pitch black color with thin creamy light brown head. Taste starts with light to medium sweet and rich roasted malt, nuts and chocolate, follows by dried fruit, alcohol, licorice and wood with earthy note, mouthfeel is smooth and warm, while finish is grassy bitter. Full body, oily texture and soft carbonation in palate. Dirty hog...

Pours pitch black, topped with a smaller beige ehad, non-lasting. Pretty intense roasted aroma, almost a bit burned with some coffee, vanilla, chocolate and gentle coconut. Taste starts gently sweet with chocolate and vanilla, moderate bitterness and roasted aftertaste, lasting and pretty present. Creamy and full body. A bit more on the burned side, but not unpleasant. Niceo ne and dangerously drinkable due to superbly hidden alcohol.
