12.05.2017, tap (2017 vintage) @ MBCC:
Nice brown slightly fizzy-creamy mediumlasting head. Aroma is slightly dry boozy, weeds, bark, minerals, oak, dark malts, dark sugar, sap, unripe banana, cocoa, grass, booze. Taste is slightly sweet mineraly, dark sugar, ashes, weeds, bark, oak, unripe banana, hay, cocoa, booze, roasted grain, caramel, dark fruits. Medium bitterness, slightly sweet and harsh burnt mouthfeel. Not my cup of tea.
