Sweet, vanilla and coffee aroma. Tastes similar with vanilla, coffee and a hint of chocolate. Malty and quite smooth.

Cask @Treefolk's (Rome). Nera, schiuma beige medio-leggera. Al naso note dolciastre di vaniglia, cioccolato e caffe. In bocca non è particolarmente equilibrata, la vaniglia risulta piuttosto stucchevole e l'amaro in chiusura è fiacco. Corpo leggero, carbonazione soft. Non una gran bevuta.

(Cask at Kitty's, 20240317) The beer poured black. Its head was small and lightly brown. Aroma had burnt malts, earth, vanilla and chocolate. Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were burnt malts, vanilla, chocolate, earth, coffee and bitterness. Aftertaste had burnt malts, vanilla, coffee and bitterness. Tasty. Nothing was overdone.
