330ml bottle. Very nice, clear, ruby red twinkling, black colour with average, frothy, half-way lasting, moderately lacing, off-white head. Dark malty, slightly grainy, minimally fruity, yeasty and vinous aroma, hints of pumpernickel, black cherry, plum and rum. Taste is vinous dark malty, minimally sweet, fruity hints of plum, black cherry, biting hints of alcohol, lively carbonation. Concerning taste it’s more a Porter than a Stout imo; apart from that heavy, fruity, vinous, prickling-biting.

The The taste is crisp, tart, yuzu, lemon, grapefruit, pomello, sherbet, minerals, mild sweetness and barnyard with a dry, tart finish. Medium body, moderate carbonation and foamy mouth-feel. A rather approachable, citrus driven affair. Quaffable.
