Sampled at the Gainsbourg. Pours a dark brown, almost black colour with red highlights, a mocha cap and some creamy lacing. Fruity malts with a roasted malt finish. Smooth mouthfeel from the oatmeal, but with a little dryness. Chocolate malt aromas with roasted and fruity malt notes. Some coffee too. Nothing too powerful, but quite easy to drink.
