(Bottle, 0.33 l - BB 15.09.16, 20151030) The beer poured black. Its head was medium sized and nearly white. Aroma had chocolate, roasted malts and molasses. Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were burnt mals, molasses, sweetness, grass and bitterness. Aftertaste was malty and bitter. A nice sweet schwarzbier. Too burnt for a dunkel.

Bottle. Nose is licorice, coffee, roasted malts. Very appealing. Taste is roast, coffee, licorice, some soy. Mouthfeel I’d a little thin. I always find this very enjoyable.

Bottle shared at the Tropical Croydonia tasting. 01/07/2015. Many thanks to Daniel for this one. Aroma is nutty sweet roast, ocffee bean, wearthy notes. Cola coloured pour. Flavour is composed of sweet stale malts, jam, earthy roast. Palate is thin, moderate carbonation. Pretty boring.
