Bottle 75 cl. Pours an almost clear reddish amber with a beige head. Surprisingly subtle aroma - a slight nuttiness. Rich body, loads of caramel and some dark dried fruit. But extremely rough and boozy as if bottom fermented. Surprisingly little complexity - this is a brutal smash in your head. 180815
