Pours black or almost so, with a couple of fingers of relatively frothy greyish head. Decent retention and lacing. Not very intense aroma: mainly chocolate (something in between milk chocolate and chocolate powder, kinda artificial), with only a hint of roasted malts and a light balsamic feel on the back. Taste notes follow the aroma: a soft chocolate feel takes the main stage, now a bit more roasted character, but still mild/soft for the style. Mainly sweet in the mouth, balanced enough in the finish where a hint of grassy/balsamic bitterness shows up. Leaves a slightly sweetish but clean enough aftertaste. Medium body and carbonation, a slightly soft/creamy mouthfeel. Overall very mild/soft for the style, probably with a chocolate adjunct that didn't feel very natural. Still fair and very much drinkable but surely not something i would look for again.
