Cask. Ranzani 13, Bologna. Nearly black. Soapy suds of beige. Nose has earthy coffee. Dark fruit. Dark chocolate. Taste is a little sweet, with an earthy, chocolatey bitterness. Medium body. Low carbonation. Finish is earthy, chocolatey, and a little dry. Easy drinking stout.

Cask at Ranzani 13, Bologna, Italy. Pours dark plum, almost black, with limited cappuccino foam, very fine. Aroma is weak but nice, of coffeea little vanilla. Body is surprisingly light for imperial stout, even at 8 degrees. Carbonation almost agent (cask, after all). Taste is fairly sweet, with moderate bitterness and roastiness. Finish is also surprisingly short for such a beer.
