Bottle. This beer has a distinct, strong coffee taste and aroma. Pours deep and dark with a little brown head that leaves brownish white rings of lace. If one is a coffee lover, this is the beer for you.

Keg at Mokka, Woking. Clear copper gold. Thin foamy translucent white head. Aroma is light. Malty. Slightly metallic. Slightly vinegary. Dry. Woody. Metallic edge. Sour edge. All quite restrained. Light-medium bodied. Slick. Soft-fizzy carbonation. Chalky. Dry. Dryness is the primary characteristic, in fact. Relatively crisp but the malts are just not fresh freeling.

0.33 l bottle shared @ home. Earthy and bitter with herbal notes. One of the best English IPAs I’ve had so far.

Bottle shared at home, thanks to Tomi. Clear golden, thin white head. Pretty standard lager, bittersweet with a light, crisp body. Nothing interesting really.

Bottle shared at home. Pours clear golden eith thin head. Altogether a quite poor, lager-like pale just avoid it if possible.

I dont feel like writing a comprehensive rating so here are my notes of the tasting: Clear copper, thin head. Slight metallic notes, some bready grains and moderate bitterness with no pronounced hops. Light body, av. carbo, goes down easy.

First things first, this is a great looking bottle. Incredible aroma! Really intense, bitter slightly burnt coffee/espresso. The flavor is more of the same, but there is a really nice subtle smokiness. Touches of soy in the finish with more of the smoke, and a good burst of bitter coffee.
