Bottle. Slightly hazy amber color with large cream eggshell head. Aroma is toffee, grapefruit, some tropical fruits. Taste is toffee, earthy, piney, some tropical fruity hops. Maybe not the freshest, but I like the malt body. Probably great stuff when fresh and local.

Foams a lot when pouring. Aroma has ash, some licorice and pot coffee. Also some yeast. Flavour has strong ashy notes, some herbal tones and pot coffee. Some grapefruity hops also. Messy.

A black beer, a head is quite big and beautiful, dense, creamy and brown. Aroma has smooth salt liquorice, dark and dried fruits, some chocolate and strenght of alcohol. Powerful. Taste has salt liquorice, sweetness of malts, dry roastiness and coffee, also bitterness, hint of dried fruitness. Full bodied, not stickyness, creamy and smooth. Great salt liquorice, smooth and enjoyable, strenght and so easily to enjoy.
