Bottle, courtesy of fonefan. It’s a clear, dark brown beer with a small, beige head. The aroma has a nice roasted malty background. Fruity too, and with dried fruits. It’s dry in the mouth, full-bodied and smooth. Coffee, dried fruits and some bitterness in the flavor, finishing quite bitter. A quite nice one, nothing special, but tasteful and pleasant. 110415

Bottle 50 cl. Courtesy of fonefan. Pours a clear and warm brown with the most beautiful tint of red with a small beige head. Heavy roast nose with some dark dried fruits. Medium body, heavy roast, some ashes and dark fruit with a slight tartness. I believe I can really taste the damson. Dryish and slightly tart finish. 150411
