Avast, ye mateys!

No need fer battin' down the hatches or pullin' up the Jolly Roger. There be no wild waves or cause fer pullin' out yer cutlasses. 'tis fer lack of caution that this here brig be scuttlin' under our very feet.

Bleedin' scumbag stowaway from Sunstone Alehouse found his damned self playin' with flame round our powder kegs, three sheets to the wind cause of our Captain’s special brew.

Fetch the scurvy-ridden scallywag and make him dance the hempen jig by the mast! And get yer last jug of now smokey precious porter to have yer last giggle with yer fellow seadogs just before turnin’ all into sharkbait.

If it be not to your likin', well... dead men tell no tales.

33cl bottle share @ Niamey's 3rd craft beer tasting, big cheers to Madalin for logging around 30 Romanians bottles to Africa. Brune foncée, col beige. Arôme offre un bouquet malté fumé plaisant, rétro doux, caramel avec une pointe de mélasse. Palais est malté, caramel, léger fumé avec un petit effet doux rappelant un peu un caractère allemand de mélanoïde. Pointe de café sur la fin avec une note finement épicée. Le houblonné reste assez discret et apporte une balance noble.

BOTTLE 33 CL. Opaque dark brown, mocha head. The aroma is mostly smoke, smoked wood, a little smoked fish, not much malt coming through. The taste is more yummy - sweet dark malts, some brown sugar, charred wood and a hint of smoky bitterness. Good chewy body, thick yet easy-drinking. Very well done.
