650ml bottle [2014 vintage, 7.0% abv]. Quasi black colour with small, creamy, fairly lasting, minimally lacing, tan head. Roasty dark malty aroma, notes of milk chocolate and dark chocolate. Taste is roasty dark malty, chocolately, notes of dark chocolate, a minimally smoky touch, some malt spiciness, a very cautious Marmite touch. Also OK at a Midsommar evening.

Sweetish flavour of coffee and chcocolate and lactose, complemented by roasty notes and faint, hoppy touches. Bitter and roasty anftertaste. Low carbonation but the body is medium to rich. Okay.
