Pours dark brown, nearly black. Scent is sweet. Taste is sharp, some vanilla. Very boozy and hollow. Dried fruits. Not my thing. Faded spirit-like aroma.

Draught Small rim over deep dark red-purple to black beer. Very syrupy, quite some tobacco/cigar leaf, some vanilla. Sweet, dry, bitterish. Bitter herbs as for a German liqueur. More vanilla. Very 'hot', very well bodied, and very carbonated. This is one for the notebooks, especially as I'm usually not very partial to sweet beers.
