Bottle @ EBF - Thanks Menno! Hazy orange with no head. Sweet yeasty aroma with ripe fruits and spices. Flavour is sweet with notes of oranges, yeast, orange peel, caramel and warming alcohol towards the end. Alcohol is so well hidden.

Draught Black, no head but a brown rim. Bit of sulphur, "putteke", and very dry tobacco ash. Also lots of ureum warming up. Dry stout, still some sweetness, alcohol. A strange sweet-malt flavour, no doubt the brown malt. Nearly carbon dust MF, despite a bit of restsugars. Nice!;; Ideal combinations of dry and restsugars, resulting in an unusual, but succeeded balance.

Draught Black beer, small rim. Pure coffee nose, Nespresso... Black coffee & chocolate in the taste, with just a hint of some spices, but little else. Finish is sweet however. Very slick, nearly oil. Crude one, that is. Not a small stout, just a tad sweet, maybe quite some unrefermented sugars?

Draught at EBF08. Creamy and spicy aroma, perhaps a bit wheaty. Muddy orange and brown colour. Small tight tan head. Creamy and spicy flavour, like a spicy Dunkelweizen. Astringent bitterness, from the alcohol.
