330mL bottle, pours black with a small light brown head. Aroma reveals a nice deep roasted malt character, some iron (maybe that's the beet), and dry cocoa. Flavour is rich, with tons of roasted malt, cocoa, a touch of espresso, and a little molasses. Rich roast, chocolate and sugars on the finish. Excellent.

heavy roasted malty aroma, licorice, vineous, beetroot. pours very dark brown to blakc, with a very nice looking brown head. Flavor is roasted malts , licorice, perfectly matched bitter hops, espresso coffee, the bitterness towards the end is complex and super nice. On top of all that are the hints of beetroot which is pretty peculiar but doesn't distract too much, takes on the same role as perhaps a red-wine barrelling would have done. Surprisingly delicious.

Bottle: Poured a pitch-black color stout with a large dark brown foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of roasted malt notes with some black chocolate and some light vegetable/sweetness notes. Taste is also a mix of bitter roasted malt notes with some black chocolate notes offset by some sweet beets notes. Body is pretty full with good carbonation with no apparent alcohol notes. Interesting mix of flavors even though I wouldn't be seeking this on a regular basis.

Donkerbruin tot zwart bier met mooie bruinrode schuimkraag die helaas snel wegzakt. Smaak is bitter en krachtig met iets van koffie, bittere chocolade, wat rood fruit en een heel licht zuurtje wat hier uitstekend tot zijn recht komt.
