(Bottle) Pours black with big loose brown head. Good aroma with roasted grains, chocolate and raisin notes. Good mouthfeel too. Medium to full body, with some stickiness and fine prickly carbonation. There’s a nice dark roast grain / dark chocolate taste that gives both richness and bitterness. There’s a good balance of sweet and bitter. Very enjoyable.
Quite funky, almost vinegary. Thanks Dan F.!
