Bottle at home in London, picked up in Amsterdam. Pours clear brown with a tight, creamy tan head. Rich, dark bready malts in the nose, Belgian candi sugar, light roast, some alcohol. Medium to big sweet flavor, earthy bitterness, some dusty cocoa, bit of booze, rich bread. Medium bodied with fine carbonation. Warming finish, sturdy roast, charred toast, dark sugars, dry bread, some dark fruits. The alcohol is perhaps a touch too pronounced at times, but it’s nice in general.
