End transmission.

Draught at MBCC Red Session. Pitch black in the glass. Tan-coloured head leaving lacing rings behind. Sweet chocolate sous aromas. Vanilla chocolate flavours joined by nuts and grain on a backbone of bourbon. Coffee hints to a slightly roasted ending, long lasting. Velvety smooth in the mouth. Lovely slow sipper qualities. (Copenhagen 12.05.2018).
