You open a bottle. You hear a click. The universe splits. In this reality, there’s a black, thick liquid in front of you. Dark chocolate, smooth coffee and roasted malts greet your senses. You take a sip of decadence. Embraced by the warming void, everything starts to make sense. You are immortal now.

Pitch black pour with a tall, lively dark tan head with OK-ish retention. Notes of roasted malts, dark chocolate, dark roasted coffee beans, a bit of licorice. A solid RIS

JUL-2019. DRAFT. Still has some of that husk in the aroma. No green hops, no ugly burnt barley. Really rich dark sugar dark chocolate liqueur alcohol balance. Straight, big and bold, no complaints. 4,1/5.
APR-2019. Batch #1. Pitch black, espresso head. The aroma starts with grassy and green hop notes. Faint burnt sunflower shells, shy dark sugars and fresh malts in the background - hardly impressive, so far. Some alcohol, or ethanol should I say, slowly crawling in. Gets maltier and even grainier with time - these cling in until the end. The taste is much more punchy (not pastry or sugar bomb, though). Restrained, though not totally sugar-free, dark malts and treacle, low on roast malts big on spicy pungent hops. Just the right amount of alcoholic heat. Smooth, easy going mouthfeel. Overall, a bit weak on the aroma, strong on flavour and balance. Almost... really good. 3,9/5.
