Bottle from Hopt. Aroma is roasted malt with notes of char, chocolate, some coffee, light hoppy tone, more roast throughout. Flavour is light sweet with a roasty dry bitter finish. Body is medium, carbonation is rather lively. Roast: check. Bitterness: check. I like.

Bouteille 75cl, ramenée de Paris, merci Willy, et dégustée au Sunday Lunch de la villa Abdou à Niamey. BB 06/2020. De couleur noire foncée, col très épais et tenace café au lait. Arôme est plaisant, malté chocolaté, léger grillé rappelant bien un stout de caractère anglais. Retrouve de fines effluves des houblons apportant un léger côté amer noble. Palais est léger, complexe axé sur de belles notes de malts grillés, chocolatés, amertume fine noble un peu terreuse. Petite note de fruits rouges. Sec en bouche avec une bonne balance quant à l'effervescence.

Bottle at home. Opaque dark brown to black color, small beige head. Smell and taste malts, a bit metallic, a distant hoppy note, lightly bitter. Quite weird and on the one side a bit bland but on the other side not bad. 7-3-7-3-13.

Bottle at Bodney - thanks to Dan. It pours hazy deep brown with a small beige head. The aroma is soft, sweet, juicy, oily, vinous, tangy fruits, dried berry, marshmallow and toasted brioche. The taste is slick ,wood, toasty grain, roasted malt, charred wood, marshmallow, peppery spice and cocoa with a drying finish. Nice aroma, but it comes across a bit charred. Decent anyhow.
