330ml bottle. Quasi black colour with ruby glimmer and average, frothy to creamy, half-way lasting, minimally lacing, tan head. Sweet-ish, chocolately, dark malty aroma, notes of toffee, dark caramel, dark chococlate, a touch of malt lozenge, some roast. Taste is slightly bitter, roasty dark malty, chocolately, some coffee, dark chocolate, a touch of burnt caramel. Rich and intense, especially for relatively light 4.9% abv; the light body is nevertheless perceivable, since all flavours seem to float like an aerostat, no "road contact" somehow.
