440ml Can from some Slovnaft in Slovakia. Fajna kremowa piana sniada, Mleczna burza, jakby robic capucino z ekspresu. Solidna gestosc, czarne i nie przejrzyste. Kulka azotu mocno syknela. Fajne bez alko ale z mnostwem wrazen i zadowala cena bo i paliwo tez bylo tanie na tej stacji.

Pint @ Kelly's Cellars, one of the oldest pubs in Belfast, if not the oldest - 1720! Finally get to have this again in order to rate it. Burnished amber pour, slightly off-white collar. Quite a light bodied amber, soft nutty notes, fruity amber malt, soft on the lips, good refresher after a long walk around town.

500ml can. Pours an almost clear black with red hue and a small, foamy, long lasting, beige head that leaves thick, sticky, curtains of soapy lace. Aroma of roasted malt, dark chocolate, ash and coffee. Sweet flavour of roasted malt, caramel, molasses and coffee in a dry, bitter finish. Light body with an oily to watery texture and soft carbonation. Solid.
