330ml bottle from Beers of Europe. Gusher. I think that’s four out of five beets I’ve had from this brewery with yeast problems. Pours hazy red brown with a massive rocky beige head. Aromas of metal and wood, charcoal and faint chocolate. Taste is burnt rubber, metal. Bitter finish. Considering asking for a refund! Drain pour.
