Cask @ Brassigaume 2012. The beer that changed many times over its name down to the point that the guy who was selling this wasn’t sure whether it was called Black or Dark Shadow. Even the name written on top of the handle showed clear attempts of him trying to turn Black into Dark – possibly more than once, going back and forth. Pretty dark brown, going a bit to black or dark or maybe even black shadow with a shade lighter mocha head. Smells of roasted mocha and chocolate. Sweet mocha, almost touch vinous, berries, bitter hops in the back, chocolate, mellow hazer. Cask bodied so flatter, softer carb. a nice one.

Cask @ Brassigaume 2012. Brune foncée, col épais chocolat-café au lait. Arôme est malté léger sur des notes malt qui demeurent assez en retrait et discrètes. Houblon subtile rajoutant une légère touche d’amertume. Palais est léger, malté avec caramel, let out sur une amertume houblonné sur des notes tropicales très plaisantes. Pointe d’épice pour une bière qui dans son ensemble reste très anglaise, fini sec malté/grillé avec un plus venant des houblons.
