650 ml bottle. Pours a very dark brown with light head. Aromas of chocolate powder and chalk with a hint of biscuits. Metallic and sour. Can’t really get much of the flavors after this assault. Bizarre.

Bottle. Classic peach/apricot hop aroma. Cloudy (light gray) yellow with a low white head. Yeast was on the decline in my bottle (month before BB), light autolysis, leafy hops, nice aromatic notes. Medium body, dry mouthfeel.Completely fresh I am sure this was a super beer, I only got its shadow.

Black color, with small head. Moderate aroma of roasted malts, with very light notes of bread and acid. Good body structure; unfortunately a lingering acidity is immediately perceived and spoils the experience; besides that, there is some dry chocolate and roasted malt; all indicates this could be a good beer if not flawed.
Note: the label has dents corresponding to the year (?) 02, the month 08 and the days 2 and 29; confusing

Hazy golden color. The aroma is breadish, strong, some cereals. The mouthfeel is dry; there is caramel flavor, with a mild character of bread cereals and vegetables; it has a quite strong bitterness, the hop providing a grassy touch.
I expected a beer with spicy yeast (Belgian) and fruity hop (American); instead this is a British Bitter.

Cloudy orange-amber color, with small head. Nice hop fruity aroma, with some apricot and oranges, and a light cheesy hint. Good mouthfeel, not too dry nor too chewy, with good toffee flavor; the hop is strong, partially resiny and earthy; the final is long.
I usually prefer fresher and fruitier IPAs, but this one too has a character, solid and very good.
