Bottle @home. Nera, densa, impenetrabile, schiuma colore cappuccino medio-leggera, non molto persistente. Al naso intense note tostate, di caffè, liquirizia, cioccolato, etilica. In bocca è dolce all'attacco con amaro in chiusura piuttosto lungo e persistente, molto etilica, legno. Corpo pieno, carbonazione medio-leggera. Molto interessante, ma l'etilico a mio avviso è un po' eccessivo.

Cremig malziger Beginn. Dunkles Getreide, geringfügig alkoholisch, was sich aber schnell ändert, so ist der Alkohol im Mittelteil deutlich erkennbar. Dennoch überraschend süffig, geringfügig röstig, einige Aromen werden vom Alkohol überdeckt. Mittellanger Abgang. 10/8/7/8/6/8

Poured from 330mL bottle (bottled 26/04/23). Near black with small tan head. Roast malt, a bit of fruitiness, feint hops, decent.

330mL bottle, pours jet black with a small brown head. Aroma is full of sludgy roasted malt, some earthiness, and plenty of wood. Flavour is very hoppy and roasty, with plenty of roasted malt, gentle earthiness, some tepid wood, and plenty of hops to balance. Very roasty, wood, hoppy finish. Very European in impie stout style. Very good.

Keg @ The Boot, Wellington. Pours black with a creamy espresso-esque beige head. Aroma introduces good deep dark malt and roast with additional cocoa. Flavour profile builds on this, good resonant malt depth with a soft choco-caramel influence from the barrel aging in the background.. really nice. After a couple of so-so beers from Struise it's great to try a beer that tastes of the Struise of yore.

22nd January 2024, third of a pint in the Boot, great to see such wonderful beers as this on tap here in Wellington, Shropshire. Black bodied, brown topping. Chocolatey, malty and luscious in nature, loved it.

A black beer, a head is medium and light brown. Aroma has liquorice, salt liquorice, some sweetness of toffee and dried fruits. Taste has salt liquorice, richness of maltyness, some roastiness, also bitterness. Full bodied, some warming in the throat. Overally, quite simple, but very good.
