Pitted yellow-cream head over clear reddish mahogany beer; rings of lace. Tarr, bark, wood, liquorice, shoepolish spices, roasted nuts and dito coffee. Coffee, roast, bit meaty even. Main taste is sweet(er), but the finish again bitter, nearly harsh, and again woody. Medium bodied, bit raw impression yet smooth texture; medium carbonation. Not bad - better even: original.

0.33 l bottle from ’Drankenspeciaalzaak van Haastregt/Lamers’, bottled in March 2017. Clear, very dark reddish brown with a medium large, frothy, almost stable, beige head. Sweetish, malty, moderately roasty aroma of milk chocolate, cocoa powder, caramel and some coffee. Quite sweet, moderately roasty-malty taste of milk chocolate, coffee, licorice and caramel, followed by a short, moderately roasty-bitter, slightly earthy-dry finish. Medium body, slightly creamy mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Quite nice, but too sweet and monotonous, lacks depth, quite thin for that abv as well.
