Extraordinary, medal-winning dark session beer. A blend of 5 malts give a smooth, mellow easy to drink beer with a hint of liquorice in the finish. There are berry fruits, sweet molasses and coffee on the nose.

Very dark brown with a red hue. Has a fairly strong dark malt aroma. The dark roasted malt flavour is nice but the light and watery texture is disappointing.

Deep nutty brown/ruby color with a fine beige head. Lovely lacing. Smooth mild dark malt and toffee aroma. Medium body and a fine balance between bitterness and sweetness. Smooth and mellow dark malt, toffee and mild bready flavor. A really fresh, tasty and nice mild ale. This brewery really deliver.

0.5l bottle. This one has a clear deep dark ruby brown colored body and a small islandy quite bubbly beige head. It has a mild roasted nose, a tad caramel sweet with traces of coffee and dark sweet berries. Not bad. It's definitely roasted in the taste also and that dark caramel sticks. Almost burned sugar. It has a really thin and near watery mouthfeel and it's just below average on the carbonation. Soft traces of both old coffee and chocolate wrapper. Quite mild and easy. A faint acidity in the finish and aftertaste. Mildly mild but still tasty. Don't see myself purchasing again, but this bottle did it's job just fine. 20.04.2014
