1l crowler at home courtesy of karrjin directly from the brewery, big thanks. No BB date. almost black color, medium big off-white head. smells of spices, hints of cocoa, bit roasty, leathery, bit nutty, hazelnuts, nice smells. medium body, soft carbonation, slick mouthfeel. tastes earthy, spices, nutty, hazelnuts, bit leathery, light charcoal, peppery, hints of caramel. finishes lightly dry with notes of hazelnuts, earthy and some peppery notes. quite nice one, lovely hazelnut notes, especially once it warms up a bit. very smooth to drink. there is a hint of an off note, but its quite subtly in the background and does not distract (yet). good stuff overall.
