Can, 0.44l. Aroma of roasted malt, caramel, cocoa, dried fruit and licorice. Pours almost black color with thin creamy light brown head and soft visible carbonation. Taste starts with sweet and rich roasted malt, caramel and molasses, follows by liquor, dried fruit and herbs, mouthfeel is warm alcoholic, while finish is moderate bitter with ashy aftertaste. Full body, syrupy texture and average carbonation in palate. Sweet dreams are made of this…

Can: As black as Ink- as usual, no head to speak of - as usual, solid sweet-bitter aroma of toasted malt, vanilla (&wood), leather and port-wine (e.g. dried fruits); solid sweet and mildly bitter flavour, full bodied with a silky MF - as expected - and sticky; lingering sweet fruity and toasty/caramelly finish with a mild alk-burn in the aftertaste. Pleasant drop...
