Un grand merci à Graham pour m'avoir envoyé cette bière. En verre, nous sommes sur un noir total avec une mousse brune s'estompant rapidement et une très faible effervescence. Le nez est sympathique sur le café et le chocolat avec de légères épices et un soupçon de charbon. En bouche, les arômes sont francs mais sans réelles variations. Mais c'est le sucre surdosé qui m'a le plus dérangé même si l'amertume arrive quelque peu à le contrebalancer. La présence en bouche est bonne. Quelques déséquilibres pour être vraiment appréciable.
gave a cheers!

Medium body and moderate, bubbly carbonation. Bright and fruity. Quaffable and fun.

Can shared at Anti-Carnavalstasting 2026. Darker orange color, average sized white to off-white head. Aroma and flavor is malts, hops, but the hop seems off in a way. Hard to describe. Unfresh. No, not a fan.

Bottle via the online shop. Hazed gingery gold. Slim white foam. Nose is Rose’s Lime cordial. Sherbet. Whiff of Lockets sweets, too. Very sweet shop. Taste is citrusy tart dry and a tad sweet. Very effervescent on the palate. Slight acidity. Juicy lime filled fruity tart finish. Nicely novel and easy drinking.

440ml can. Almost black pour, some sediment sinking to the bottom, long-lasting tan head. Aroma of treacle, roasted malts, dark fruits, liquorice. Taste is heavy on the umami favours, lots of treacle, caramel, liquorice, roasted malts, chocolate, leather, malt loaf, tangy dark fruits, oak, bittersweet. Medium-full bodied. Well made stout that's just a bit savoury for my liking.

0.44 l can shared with Ogi at Projekt, Ljubljana. Dark brown to black, small beige head. Aroma is lightly toasty with hints of prunes and smoke. Not very rich or complex. Flavour is metallic, charred wood and burnt toast. Heavy, full body, warming, some alcohol felt. Quite messy and intense, not a good example of the style. Lots of oak and burnt wood in the finish, overwhelming. Dry.
