Draft. A deep red beer with thin brown head. The aroma has strong notes of roasted malt, soy sauce, and wood. The flavor is sweet with strong notes of soy sauce and wood as well as medium notes of nuts, bitter dark chocolate, prunes and a bit of fruits, leading to a dry roasted and woody finish

50cl bottle. Black with a quite small brownish head. Coffee, smoke, roasted malt, chocolate in aroma and flavor. Also some sourness in the flavor. Did feel something sweet in the finish and flavors of nuts. On the whole, a rather nice beer.
