On cask at gizmo. Smell of peppery coffee. Flat of course since its on cask. Big coffee on coffee flavors for a somewhat pale brew. Not over the top but the pepper does shine thru. They told me my sample had sorachi ace hops and Sumatra coffee in it. Certainly an enjoyable coffee centered brew, even on cask, which I don’t particularly care for.

Bottle 65 cl. 5.7% according to my bottle. Pours golden with a lively, white head. Subtle coffee aroma blending in with fruity hops. Light body, lightly fruity, again some "green" coffee notes and a somewhat bitter finish. Unusual but quite enjoyable. 240915
