Can. Pours cloudy coffee brown with creamy, stable liggt tan head. Clear aroma of malt and yeast, with touches of caramel and hops. Bitter, roasty and hoppy flavour with touches of coffee and sweetish notes of caramel malt and yeast. Roasty and estery aftertaste with touches of caramel. Decent for the style. Tasty and nice.

Can, 4.5%. Weak liquorice aroma. Very dark brown colour, perhaps chestnut, and perhaps clear. Big stable light brown head. The flavour has a mild coffee note with a good roasted finish. Creamy mouthfeel. Late and long coffee aftertaste along with a touch of bitterness.

Nincs kulonosebb hibaja, hiszen annyira jellegtelen, hogy szinte lehetetlen megitelni barmelyik attribúciója alapján. Gyakorlatilag szines viz, elkepeszto.

Аромат достаточно сухой, почти эспрессо кофе, есть прямо намеки на зерна, также затем шоколад, почти нету сладости. Цвет черный, пенка средняя, кремовая по цвету, большие пузыри. Вкус умеренно сухой, легкая сладость от шоколада. Зерна кофе на финише. Хорошо ощущается прожаренный солод. В целом хорошо.
