0.33 l bottle from ’Dranken Melgers’, bottled in October 2015. Gushing! Clear, very dark brownish red to black with a massive, fluffy, quickly diminishing, light brown head. Slightly smoky, roasty-malty aroma of dark chocolate, coffee beans, cocoa, peat and licorice. Sweetish, slightly smoky, roasty-malty taste of dark chocolate, cocoa, coffee beans, ash and hints of dark cherries, followed by a medium long, roasty-bitter, peaty finish. Medium to full body, effervescent mouthfeel, lively carbonation. Quite tasty, but the gushing and the annoyingly heavy carbonation impair the pleasure a lot. This is a beer with real potential but it is crafted so poorly.
