440ml can from the Bierboetiek De Zythotheek, Valkenburg. Poured into an old Wolnzacher Brauhaus, Hopfenperle glass tankard at home on 16th December 2025. Mahogany red body, clean and clear, on top a solid crown of tanned foaming bubbles. Malty with a coffee like aroma and initial taste, heads nearly all gone, as I wrote about it (this is live rating). Some chocolate notes arriving as it warms a little. Decent enough, but I expected and wanted more depth and 'oomph' for the money I paid for it.
