Can shard at Ganz, courtesy of Zozo. Pours black with a lacing brown head. Nose is dark chocolate, coffee, light dried fruits, earthy notes and some vanilla. Taste is moderately sweet malty, a tad boozy with a hint of vanilla and chocolate and moderately bitter notes of dark chocolate and coffee. Closes with a chocolate and vanilla finish, has a thin body and average carbonation. With a bigger body it could've been even better.

Black beer, brown fizzy head which soon things out to a film. Rich smell of toasted malt and chocolate. Taste has vanilla, chocolate, malt, a little coffee. Fairly straightforward flavours but it's rich and smooth and really very tasty and the balance is really.good.
