Bottled. Pours black with beige head that disappears quickly. Coffe and roasted malts dominate in aroma and taste, with some slight hoppy bitter and bread/biscuits notes. The creamy mouthfeel is quite pleasant and combined with the soft carbonation and light body, make it easily drinkable. Speaking of the light body, it’s a bit too light, could be more full-bodied because this way it feels slightly watery. Not bad, but there’s room for improvement.

Bottle. Brownish black colour with a mediumsized foamy beige head. Aroma is roasted, some coffeeish, mild chocolaty and vanilla tones along with a bit of wooden and nutty tones. Flavour is following the pattern of the aroma, but also has a quite nice floral hoppy bitterness to it.

hoppácska! elgázolt a transzibériai expressz. bár a sör is olyan sokáig tartott volna. fasza kis stout lett ez, gyümölcsös-száraz-kávés kombóval. itatja magát mint a maszületett kiscickány.
