The aroma is sweet dominated by brambleberries. The color is black and it has a beutiful light brown head. The flavor is dominated by burnt and brambleberry flavors. It has a very dry end. A very good beer.

Black beer with a swirling head, mildly hopped aroma and a bitter flavour. A good bitter stout, but it lacks a quality to make it very good.

Beautiful label. Near black colour. Aroma of molasses, slightly curranty notes. The nose hints at the sweetness to come. The body is indeed sweet, slightly earthy, fruity, with a toffeeish note. The fruit blends in well, and overall the character of the beer is very unique. It is more reminiscent of an old-school porter than a stout, given its lack of overt roast and hop.
