- 1 point for the irritating superfluous wax. Russet-cream head over russet tinted, almost black beer. Chocolate, liquorice, japwater; some mild roast, roasted grains. Liquorice, japwater, preserved orangepeel. Some alcohol in the background, if for a 10.4% beer, meek. Roast. Surprisingly thin MF for such a massive beer; more than a bit sticking. Disappointing. Le plumage ne vaut pas le ramage. Japwater & some alcohol.
