At GBF. Czech stout with creamy, stable, deep beige head and reddish burgundy colour, very deep and dark and almost black. Aroma of pipe tobacco, blackcurrant, red wine vinegar, bitter chocolate, charcoal, coffee grounds, dust. Sourish, cassis-like fruitiness in the onset, unexpectedly so, with a viscous, thick mouthfeel; ashy roastedness ensues, bittering, with deep earthy hop bitterness in the finish, while the alcohol stays relatively well hidden. Solid and somewhat unusual, but pleasant stout.

(Thx! for sharing) Sampled bottled @ Gents Bierfestival 2015. Black, small very dark mocha head. Nose is thick, big on licorice, big roast, herbal. Taste is bitter burned / roasted malts, herbal, chicory coffee, licorice, cacao,… A bit thin & grainy. Not really what I look for in a stout but decent.

Jet-black beer under a greenish-greige rim. Stout features with burnt and acidic notes, bit of meat, hot ironslag. Roasted/burnt, meatcrust with quite some sweetness underneath. Full bodied, oily, viscous, rich feel. Good try, but not yet a Speedway Stout, I’m afraid.

Imported from my RateBeer account as Zhůřák Asfalt Extreme Stout 20° - ročník 2014 (by Pivovar Zhůřák):

8/VII/15 - on tap @ Francis - první pravá pivní retro kavárna (Plzen) - BB: n/a (2015-885) Thanks to Motelpogo for the beer!
Dark brown to black beer, big creamy beige to brown head, very stable, adhesive, leaving a nice lacing in the glass. Aroma: sourish, brett notes, some coffee, very roasted. MF: soft carbon, medium body. Taste: pretty sourish start, funky, cocoa powder, very roasted, some alcohol. Aftertaste: bit fruity, sourish, funky, infected brett touch, hoppy, grassy dry bitterness, cocoa powder. Not sure if the sour (infection?) is intentional... But I like a dash of sourness in my stouts, makes 'm easier to digest, I think. :p
