50 cl bottle @ home. Rated on 16.01.2009
Aroma has chocolate, some coffee notes, hints of nuts and smoke. Flavour has licorice, some coffee, semi‐dark chocolate and hints of smoke. Slightly sour finish with ashy notes. Excellent stuff for this ABV, it is quite amazing how tasty beers williams can do with only 4-5%.

500ml bottle. Clear dark brown with average, frothy to creamy, minimally lacing, beige head. Dark malty and slightly grainy aroma has hints of dark fruit, some roast and coffee notes. Taste is initially dry hoppy with a soapy tendency, later still dry with a roasty and dark malty touch; slightly watery in the second half; finish has to some degree lasting, explicit, albeit only decent roasty notes.
