volgens mij van een webshopje gescoord, zwart met schuimige bruine kraag. aroma van mouten, zoet, chocolade.... ... smaken zijn matig/redelijk zoet, matig bitter, zwak fruitig, redelijk moutig, donkere chocolade, vanille, lichte koffie, romig en glad van textuur, lage co2, lange prettige en wat zoete afdronk. ik moet erkennen ik ben echt onder de indruk van dit bier.... en al helemaal als je er niets van verwacht.... gewoon prima...

50cl Can brought from Sri Lanka, thanks Thijs! Clear golden orange colour, white head. Aroma of pickled ginger, a bit soapy, lemon spray, cheap strong lager. Flavour of root beer, ginger, quite sweet, a bit of metal, fruity, thin bitter finish with sugar and aluminium. Medium bodied at best.

Bouteille 330ml. Couleur noire opaque, faible mousse moka foncée fuyante. Arôme un peu épicé, malt torréfié, malt, café. Goût de malt torréfié, café. Carbonatation moyenne, corps moyen-faible. Plutôt unidimensionnelle.

bottle, courtesy of jaghana. Deep black, with a small beige head. Intenive yraomas of dark chocolate and coffee. Smooth and velvety on the palate, loads of chocolate and coffee, not too sweet, not too dry. Perfectly balanced and so, so smooth and drinkable. Superb stuff!

Draught. Bright yellow with small frothy white head, doughy aroma, low carbonation, sweetish malt taste, thin body, abrupt finish with little hops effect. Not a great brew.

16oz can. Big, sugary, sweet molasses body. Captures the style well enough, but sort of on the cheaper end of the spectrum with the ingredients. Foamy beige head on top of an opaque brown-black body. Definitely the best beer made in that area of the world that I’ve had. Classic world beer.

33cl Can, brought from Sri Lanka, thanks Thijs! Been on my wish list for a while. Black colour, beige head. Aroma of liquorice, roasted malts, coffee and cream, some chocolate. Flavour is of roasted malts, some coffee and cream, liquorice, light minty (like Zwitserse kruisjes drop), some plain chocolate, bitter finish, hint of metal. Medium bodied at best. Not as great as I hoped, but nice though.
