Kräftige schwarzbraune Farbe, duftender haselnussfarbener Schaum, röstig, nussig, ausgeprägt bitter, ausgewogene Aromatik mit Kaffee‐ und Schokoladenoten . Ein Klassiker der englischen Bierstile. Passt sehr gut zu und im Gulasch, aromatischem Käse und auch zu Vanilleeis.

Bottle, many thanks herrklemann! Hazy brown color with beige head. Aroma is chocolate, roasted malts, vanilla, liquorice, some dark fruits. Taste is milk chocolate, liquorice, some roasted malts, bready, earthy. Low carbonation, silky mouthfeel, a bit watery. Not bad!

330 ml bottle from Grand Whisky, Vienna.
Black body, with a big, fluffy, lacing, dark beige head.
Aroma of coffee, dark chocolate, toast, liquorice, caramel, some dark fruits.
Taste follows this pretty much.
Medium, creamy mouthfeel, with an average carbonation.
Finishes quite soft, roasty, dry, a bit alcohol warming, with toast, coffee, liquorice, suntle caramel.

Nice one. Quite light bodied, but with nice, dry roasty notes and a good balance. Not among my favourite Stouts from Austria, but really solid and drinkable.

Bottle. Aroma dried fruits, prune, sweetish, chocolate, roasted. Dark brown colour. Taste got lots and lots of astringency probably coming from husks. Thin bodied yet hard to drink.
