250ml on tap 26 at Helst, shared with Leif. Creamy fawn-coloured head leaving crocheted lacing on the glass. Near-black body. Smell of sweet chocolate malts, promising. Well blended taste of chocolate and dark fruits. Lingering mid-sweet, roasted malty finish. Nice and very suitable after our beef dinner. (Amsterdam 11.03.2018).
