Some sharp bitter chocolate with a hint of roast. OK head and lacing. Black pour. Light bitter finish. Palate is pretty straight forward here, not a lot of complexity. Bottle.

Drank a bottle shared with the family. Smells like mild stout, dark too. Perhaps some spices in the back of the olfactory. Decent co2 and mild stoutish flavors in there. Ginger yes, but its not in yer face. No burn and its just layen around in the background barely perceivable. Not overdone in the spices and I appreciate that.
