Almost black with a beige, creamy head. The 3 beans are coffee, chocolate and tonka. I’m picking up the former two in the aroma but not the last. There’s also a strong, roasted grain scent. Taste is bitter with plenty of grainy, charred coffee bitterness at the end. A hint of milk chocolate sweetness. Medium bodied, “mildish” carbonation. A good one and a pleasant surprise given that a of the German attempts at this style have been underwhelming.
